Thanks for posting. I've been looking for a smoother, lighter suspension setup since my LX is pretty much never loaded enough to justify my OME heavies (and I hate stinkbug!) Your glowing review of the TJM 50mm progressive has me leaning that way. I've already got the fox shocks in the rear, but can barely feel the difference since my springs are so stiff
Are your TJM springs constant load or progressive?
Can you provide the measurements now that hopefully they have settled?
Still debating on what to do with my suspension setup. I think mine are sagging and may need a replacement. Not sure what others have on their OME 861/862.
You mentioned a skinny spare. What tire are you using?
I don't want to go on any rock trails anymore.
I think if I had 1cm spacers in the rear, there would be no rub with my 35's. I mean there is a very thin line where the tires touched the body.
So, you're saying if I go beyond 2" I would need more work done besides the caster correction bushings? TJM also offers 70mm springs (2.75"). I think with my weight and settling it should go down to 2.25 - 2.5". I just want to stay away from getting control arm drop brackets and a new drive line.
I need to ride in your truck to feel how your suspension setup is. Too soft for my taste, or just right. It may all be subjective at this point from my perspective.
Did you have to modify anything else besides the caster? Any stinkbug stance with that setup?I run the OME 850/860 with Fox 2.0 and am quite happy with the setup. Firm when it should be...
