OME 885/895 Installed with Pics

The instructions were pretty straight forward. The front suspension was way easier with the sway bar taken off. The rears were pretty simple. All in all, it wasn't too bad. I'm very thankful to the members that gave me some advice on the lift. Overall I'm extremely satisfied with everything. The ride is way better than stock. No more mushy suspension. The ride is the perfect blend of stiffness. I'm glad I went with the medium set up. All of the great information and posts on these forums really helped out and made me go with this set up.

Great looking rig! That is what i want to get for my lift. Now you have to get some new shoes! What shocks (OME model #'s) did you get for the front and rears?

Re: OME 885/895 Installed with Pics

Thanks, I'm most likely gonna keep the stock rims(powdercoat) and get some 285/70/17 BFG all terrains. I went with the N140s in the front, and N141 in the rear.

Re: OME 885/895 Installed with Pics

ATs are good, but if you plan to get dirty go for the new M/T KM2s. You will not be disappointed.
