    Get the OME rear shocks...they are designed to go with the Dakars...it's worth the extra $35.

    You can't run the eibach or OME coils with the bilsteins set at 1.75". They really shouldn't be set at anything other that the 0"/stock height setting with those coil springs.

    No free shipping on dakars from DSM, just a heads up. Cheaper to buy them from your local 4wp ( was for me anyway ) shipping killed the deal for me.
