1. What lift Kit / components did you use?
OME J, L shocks, 1.5 custom steel spacers on the front to level the truck
2. Why did you select that particular lift?
Availability, no need for changes to other components (control arms, driveline)
3. What tire size are you running?
285
4. Rim specs - 16x8 w/ "x" backspacing
OEM
5. What caster correction, if any have you used?
OME, but will likely move to caster plates as steering wanders
6. Have you had any rubbing issues?
No
7. Did you have any Driveline issues? What was the cause and how did you fix it?
Slight vibration on deceleration from highway speed. It's likely in the drveshafts, will look at replacing u-joints and then double cardan shaft.
8. What is your main on and off-road uses of vehicle?
Daily driver, light trails.
9. Are you happy with the performance on and off-road your for your use.
Yes.
10. What would you do if you were going to do it differently?
Try the unheard of OME Competition 5" springs alone in the front instead of springs and spacers.
11. Any plans on modifying the lift or other related components (Tire size)?
Either taller springs in the front or 2" spacers to accommodate heavier load on the front springs.
