Re: Complete lift listing and comparison, they're all here!
cnynrat- There are a few things to add to that spread sheet you have.+
1- Fox 2.5" Dia- include sway bar relocation on the reservoir mount
2-OME's have 3 different setups
Fronts use:884 (light) 885 (medium) 886 (heavy) all use N140S shocks
Rear use: 885 (medium) w/N141 Shocks, and 886 (heavy) w/N142 Shocks
Jeshua has done a compression comparison on all the coils for you!rear spring comparison
You have great ideas in breaking down all the aspects of the manufactures shocks. A little more research and you will have an EXCELLENT comprehensive guide for all to follow! Nice Start! Soon to be a sticky I'm sure!

Someone out there has done a compression comparison (maybe Jeshua) on all the coils for you!

My comparison is just of the rear springs but I could probably find the front coil spring rates.

Re: Complete lift listing and comparison, they're all here!
ReadyLIFT out of Costa Mesa CA does a Leveling kit for the FJs. They got ahold of me from a friend of a friend and asked to borrow mine to do some R&D. They had been getting some complaints that when the gas tank is full or a substantial amount of cargo is in the rear, their leveling kit makes the front end too high. So they are prototyping a system for the rear end this week. And they told me they might look into a final lift of 3.5-4 inches. I'll get the first one they produce and be sure to post pics and to let everyone know what I think of it.
I'm not sure what their full system (front and rear lift) will retail for, but their 2.5" front end leveling system retails for around $250.
I didn't see anything on their systems on this thread has anyone used them?
They are a good group of guys. I hope their lift works good!

Re: Complete lift listing and comparison, they're all here!
Ok guys time for some updates to this thing!
Donahoe needs to be changed to Icon Vehicle Dynamics
And Radflo needs to be added to the list. I do believe Radflo has 2 or 3 options (2.0, 2.5 & 2.5 W/ remote reservoir)
Pic of there 2.0" front coil over
Pic of 2.5" rear shock
Who's in charge of this thing?
