But I haven't seen anyone who carries them. Most places only list the regular foam cells. Besides I'm guessing they will be North of 2 bills and for that I'd probably go with the Radflos. The input on the FOX's helps knock them off the list. And if you can get pricing on the +4" FC pros, I'd be curious where they land.
Thanks
Thanks
pm me Monday and I will check supply.
Thanks, will do.
Price?
OME N73/74 vs. the new 'Sport' models... which is better?
Go Bilstein 5100 and don't look back.
Front 24-238878
Rear 24-238885
These are for 2-3" of lift. Have stock mounts and are 100% bolt on no Adaptors needed.

Per @wct49, Pros are available. I am planning to hit him up for a set in the next couple weeks. The FOX IFP's seem to be decent for the $$, they come in 1"-2.5" and 3"-4" variety. Ironman comes in stock to +2, +4 and +6. The Radflo's look promising but not ready to drop that kind of coin. Bilstein's always get high marks if you fit the lift window. All should be direct bolt on with no adapters.
I'm gonna try the Ironman's on a truck that I plan to drive more as a third vehicle. Looking at a set of the FOX IFP's as some fillers (read relatively cheap on cyber Monday sale) on the front of one with a 4" SLEE setup until I get it dialed in, then I will match up a full set of something.

Good info all around. I found some lightly used old style OME's that I was thinking of using for mocking up my V8J68 project, til I know what springs, etc it will need. Glad to hear that there's better options on the market.
The Pros sound like the ultimate way to go, but I'm quite a ways out from being ready to spend $200 per corner.
I'll probably go with the 5100's or IM foams and get a feel for where to go next from there.

I have a some NIB OME rear shocks I'll make you a deal on. I think they are the sport version. Let me know if you have any interest and I will get you the part numbers (they are in storage).
I appreciate the offer, but now I think I'm sold on Bilstein or IM foam.
I don't blame you. I bought them before everyone realized they were rough.
Finally getting around to this project. The one on the right is from Aus from a RHD truck. The one on the left I assembled from parts sourced from Yan at Cruiser Addiction in Canada. Only minor differences between them and I think either will work. Hope is to have a little smoother operation than the current modified 60 series set-up that came in the truck.
