OME SAG

Hey all I have a 3rd gen with the OME Nitro charger lift 90021 and the EL096R rear pack, front springs are 887 with JBA Uppers. Since adding the lift I have added the ARB Summit bumper w/o a winch. I have notice the front end of my truck starting to sag, causing tire rubbing at full cut. How do I get the truck leveled out with the rear ? I see other trucks with this bumper fully level what am i missing? New coils, ditch OME for a true adjustable coil over like a fox?

 

I have a 1st generation Tacoma with the ARB bumper and the complete OME suspension system. Knowing that I may or may not add a winch & lights on the front of the bumper along with the weight of the engine, I bought the 883 front coils for my truck for that type of set up. You might want to look into a different set of OME front coils.

 

887 is the wrong coil.. you want 886 or 888, or whatever the third gen specific coil was for.

Also, level shouldn’t be your perfect setup. It’ll never stay there even if you achieve it briefly. If you want that, go with an adjustable coil over that isn’t Icon.

 

886 coils are still not high enough spring rate for a third gen with armor. Mine are in the garage floor after they sagged to 1/2” of lift total. Stock third gen coils are 700+/- lb coils. 886 coils are only 660. Add weight and they are flat in no time. The Kings with 700lb coils I replaced them with are great so far if they start to sag I am going to 750lb coils.

 

@RedBeard1 how much weight did you have on your truck for the 886 to sag down 0.5 inches or was it half of your total full lift? Can you describe how they rode on and off road? How high of a lift did you get? And one last question was it on a 3rd gen doublecab longbed? Thanks in advanced.
