BP51 on 250

[vmfire]

Has anyone installed OME BP51 on their 250 yet?

What height did you sent the front. I am looking to not exceed 2” over stock. Thanks in advance.

Night and day ride difference! Highly recommended. OME UCA’s as well.

Are you running wheel spacers on the Overtrail wheels? Are those stock size Overtrail tires? I like how your truck sits level. I just had the MT64 kit installed and I have noticeable rake.

How’s the overall ride? More comfy then stock?

No wheel spacers. I feel that puts undue stress on wheel bearings.

Bo51 and OME UCA’s. As built.

I am running a similar setup. OME UCA's, no spacers, and 275/70r18 KO3's. Not loving the rake

Looks great. How do the KO3’s ride on the 250?

Ride is softer than stock and more insulated but controlled. Have not adjusted shocks over their stock settings. Ordered 0-300# front struts and stock weight rear springs. Tire size is stock Overtrail takeofffs.

Looks great. How do the KO3’s ride on the 250?

They're noticeably heavier than the stock tires but only off the line. All four corners feel "beefy" compared to stock and with the MT64 kit the truck rides like a luxury tank Cadillac. I had the Wescott Preload Collar lift on for a day and ride was BAD. Not sure about with stock suspension, but the ride now feels more refined than stock even with the KO3's.

Man this is what I want to do to my 250. I want Caddy ride! My butt got used to the 110HSE I had after switching to the LR for a bit.

It rides nice. You should go for it.

Bologna skins are heavier than the stock s***. Toyota should be embarrassed to put that crap on a LC. Even one that people call a Praydoh.

This photo is giving me convulsions. Is it a 4 post lift? A 2 post? Is the lift floating? It really just looks like the lift raps are floating with no support.

What height did you get for MT64?

What springs did you go with? 0-300 in the front? It looks like maybe you stayed with the stock springs in the rear. Did you make any ride height adjustments or did you go with the factory settings? I am ordering mine tomorrow and basically want the lift you have.

It looks like a giant forklift.....

Hate to top an older thread here but I'm in the process of purchasing my lift for my 250. Right now I am literally torn between the BP51 and the MT64's. OME's descriptions lend me to believe that this is for much different use (generally) than my daily driver and weekend Colorado rocky 5/6 trails. I will be running my Method 703's wrapped in 33" Falken WP AT4 E Load 255/80/17 Pizza Cutters. I'll run the stock OEM 18" wheels in the winter wrapped in 275/75/18 Nokian Hakkas. Both sets are expensive and I'm not making a decision based off a $1K difference between the two set ups. I don't know how much I want to have to mess with adjusting the BP51's (It looks like a PITA once they're inside the springs) for my case use. I want to set them and forget them until I add more rear and front armor, then I'll dial them up.

Please let me know your experience. I am truly struggling with which set to get and while $1K difference isn't a killer, I don't want to have to replace them once I realize I bought the wrong set because as you know that is $1,000's in cost.

Thanks for your help.
