2.5" lift procomp vs ome

Gotcha. Does it not sit level unless you put longer shackles in the rear?

It sat level I just wanted a tad rake and will be loading down the back with gear so don’t want the sag.

Some great info in here. Thanks.

i was able to find a skyjacker 2.5" kit with shocks for a good price. Rides decently and the springs are long enough! could use longer shackles in back if driving with hardtop.

I think you can’t go wrong with ome. Like others say, the springs may be a little stiff. If you buy procomp I personally recommend buying just the springs and mixing with bilstein 5100 shocks. I can’t tell you how much of an improvement it is over procomp shocks. I love my set up and think the ride quality is great for a leaf sprung vehicle.

Can you order just the ProComp springs? I haven't found that yet. I've seen it with Skyjacker but it's still more expensive than the complete ProComp kit with shocks.

check 4wheelparts.

I just installed front and rear Dobinsons on my 79 FJ40, the jury is still out. Supposedly a 2 inch lift (50mm). So I assume they’ll settle some. I thought the price was good, 610.00 plus tax, free shipping, no hardware. They’re made in Australia. The company I dealt with is AMF Industrial USA. The pictures show the difference. The first picture is the front springs.
