    Working on the "fix" for the timing cover "leak" and noticed this:

    It was getting time for replacing my suspension anyway, so now its diffidently time.

    Have 6112 up front with 5160 rear.

    Thinking of going to OME setup all around:

    REAR FRONT I have a Icon RXT leaf pack, so not sure on the trim size I'll need to keep ~ 2 inch in front and 2.5-3 in rear

    I contacted wheelers so well see what they recommend.

    Yeah....not good at all.

    Those OME shocks should keep you where you want to be, height wise.

    I have the Nitrochargers in the rear and MT64'S in the front.

    I like it, though I don't have anything to compare it to. Other than stock.

    The rear could be better but I only have stock leaves w/ icon aal.
    RXT is probably what I'll end up going with.

    I thought about the MT64's but I am going to go a little less this time around. I don't go off road as much as I use to and think the standard OME would be great.

    Scrubbed some tires, and knocked a dent out.
    Yikes. Where are you at?
    Yikes. Where are you located? I upgraded to 6112 because I figured that'd be something that lasted a long time. That's a bit disappointing.

    Nearly every spring I've seen that is broken like that has also had significant rust on it (and this one's no different).
    I suspect that if you kept the rust in check, would help prevent this happening.

    I'm in Utah. Had the set up for about 8 years.

    It's time to replace the, for sure, but they appear to have been broken for years based on the rust.

    Does anyone have any experience with these nitro charger plus set up to help me with a ride height question?

    It seems the spring rate is LOWER at 588# then the 6116 at 600#

    If I am trying to keep a ride height of about 2 inches over stock ride height, as I have the icon rxt leaf pack with option 3, what trim pack setting should I use?
