    You think just driver's side? NOT rear as well? (Not even sure if the rear matters)

    OME complete kit is on the way! I cant wait to get everything together! I just cant decide i i should get top plate spacers, i got 885s so i should be close to 2 1/2 in the front but it looks like i will get more than than in the rear with dakars. So question is should i get some top plate spacers from toytec or remove a leaf from the dakars. Hub to fender in front should be right around 23" and according to oz-t's thread i should be about 25" in back. I would like to be a little closer to level, i anyone else has a similar setup let me know your measurements

    Do you haul or tow ?

    Removing a Dakar leaf will only drop the rear around 5/8 - 3/4" according to OME literature
