In spring rate but the 883 levels the truck. 884 has more spring rate for more frontal load.

I went with 885 and 895 and could not be happier, great ride (far better than stock) and no more body roll

Re: OME883 vs. OME884 ?

883 gives about 1-1/4 - 1-1/2" of lift; the 884 gives about 2". 883 gives much better handling than stock and is useful if you're not going to lift the rear but still want more load capacity (bumper etc.) on the front.

Good info here for those of us thinking about lifting.
