    So I have been shopping around for an OME lift. The plan is for 882 coils (want a plate bumper and winch eventually) and the Dakar leaf pack. I'm sure I will be needing to cut off ALL the old bolts since it's ancient. Do I need shackles? Do they add some kind of lift? I don't have anything in the bed usually, but I DO tow sometimes and eventually wanna get some kind of setup for camping. I hear headstrong offroad is good, but they shut down for like 2 weeks. wheelers offroad doesnt have 882 coils in the drop down and seems pricey. who else is a reputable dealer for OME stuff?

    >_> uhm thanks? I had already rolled through the vendor list. I was hoping for something a little more personal like if the user had actually purchased a lift through them or had dealings with the company.

    I would wait the two weeks and then get back to Marie at headstrong, to me it would be worth it.

    Truth. Worth the wait Ernesto. Purchased my Kings, ICON AALs, Billys and more from them. Worth it.

    Marie can also provide feedback and thoughts around what you are trying to do with your truck and lift.

    You need PB blaster. A few cans Maybe. Saturate the old hardware night before attempting to break them loose.
