New OME Lift Kit: Are the rear springs still A / B oriented? (1 Viewer)

[lechnito]

The OME lift kit I ordered back in February finally arrived. Everything looks good, except both rear springs have part number CS005RB. I've read elsewhere that the rear springs are side specific and the complete kit should have one rear spring end in A for the driver side and the B spring for passenger side.

Is this no longer the case with OME kits manufactured in 2016 or do I need return one of the rear springs?

Most ARB dealers seem to suggest getting either A/A or B/B these days, to avoid Cruiser Lean. Don't worry about it.

Thanks for clarifying!

I did A/B with those springs. My friend did the same so I copied him after he had B/B on his truck and it leaned.

Others use B/B and it sits level. There is no telling. You have to try it first and if is crooked one way or another after it settles, call ARB for help.

Here is some good tech on OME leaf springs.

Thanks for the advice and tech docs, guys. It's reassuring to know that I shouldn't worry about lean at this point.

Three of three installs on my Cruisers required the A/B set up. I would recommend starting with A/B.
