Currently I am running 850 front and 863 rear OME suspension with 285's. I am going to be purchasing 315's here shortly and have been doing a bunch of reading. Seems that many people are running the 850J front and 863 rears combo with L shocks.
Ideally I am trying to avoid changing the castor correction or having to purchase new control arms and / or CV driveshafts, which is why I would like to stay as small as a lift as possible.
Is it worth the extra flex of the L shocks and front 863J springs to purchase these new and install when buying my 315's or will my current setup work well? It does sit a bit stinkbug right now but levels out when loaded up with all of our family gear.
Just curious if anyone has any real world #'s on how much more flex you get when switching to the L shocks from the standard nitrocharger shocks?
FWIW, I have already installed the swaybar drops, rear bumpstop drops and have the slee blue front castor correction bushings installed. Front slee bumper and rear 4x4 labs bumper, mtech sliders.
thanks in advance for your opinions and experiences.
