Purchasing and installing OME (1 Viewer)

[koszowskima]

Hey all,

The suspension on my Fj60 is shot. I have heard nothing but great things about OME. When I took the cruiser in for some work the shop said they could do an OME lift for $3,000. Knowing the parts typically run from $1,500-2,000 I figured I would save some dough and do it myself. I know Cruiser Outfitters is a good place to get pieces, however, I was hoping to find a place in Colorado that may sell the parts to avoid some shipping costs. Does anyone have any recommendations?

All suggestions welcome.

Thanks

All those places either only have Jeep wrangler kits or go back to 80 series not 60

Also, how much does the OME help with the smoothness of the ride, steering etc?

IMO - not what you asked, but buy it from Cruiser Outfitters and pay the shipping from Utah. You will be glad you did. It has to be shipped from <somewhere> to Colorado, so you're going to paying some shipping amount. But, Cruiser Outfitters will talk you through this and be sure you get the right stuff and back you up if you don't. I don't know of any 'retail place' in this state that I would trust to order it correctly.

cant imagine shipping would be more than 100 or so...have it shipped to a business addy, always cheaper. @cruiseroutfit is close by in Utah!

Good advice. A lot can go wrong and they will have your back.

Don't forget while you you'll be paying the shipping on a kit from us (Cruiser Outfitters), you won't be paying any tax. I'm seeing ~8.5% tax in Colorado, on ~$2000 that is ~$170. Not too far off of the shipping cost

Good to know. I spoke with a rep from your location today. Just going over my budget and looking at other projects before I pull the trigger.

Thanks
