I bought my MED kit from National4WD.I wanted the heavy springs(886) for front as I have the ALLPRO bumper and the BUDBUILT skids and plan on buying a winch.Chuck the sales guy did some checking and told me I should go with the MED kit 895 rear/885 front.I decided to call ARB myself and talked to a teck and he told me the same thing.He also said that they were discontinuing the HEAVY for the front.I installed my kit on June,22/07.I will be pissed if the MED springs sag to much when I put the winch on.

Pete is right about the heavies. We are a OME/ARB dealer (ya right here in Oregon) and have been told the same thing by ARBUSA. They will still have the heavies, but they will discontinue them being listed as recommended for the FJC. The main reason is they have had alignment issues with trucks when they have not had enough weight on the front end to compress that large of a spring. That said if you do run a heavy bumper and a winch you should be fine as the folks on here are saying.
Shameless plug: Ok that said we have a set of heavies pre-loaded on struts we set up for another customer that changed his mind and went with a set of Sway-a-ways at the last minute.
