These showed up in mail a few weeks ago. Just have not found the time to get these installed on the truck yet.
OME-303001 Torsion bars and brackets from Ironman. The rear springs I got are OME 2866. 1.5 lift Heavy load.
I'm really only shooting for 1.5- 2 lift. I was going to do 2.5 but really don't need it. I don't plan on doing that crazy of wheeling just yet and really trying to budget this build out. I know the higher lifts require diff drops and changes all sort of geometry that I really don't wanna deal with at the moment. Besides I got the 2866 so should have little bit of higher lift than 1.5 on medium springs. I went back and forth with the 2855 but choose the heavy spring because sliders are next on the list and I have drawer system that haven't posted yet. That's pretty damn havey in combination of the full size 285/75/16 Pro Comp MT2 in spare location. Not to mention all crap I got planned to stuff in the drawers.
Like I mentioned, Im trying to budget the build out and take my time with it. I've been pretty impressed so far with how this truck has crawled. I can sleep a bit better at night now that I know I have right TBs up front. I plan on running the strutmaster struts till they fail or until I know that they need to upgrade for the lift I put on. For now I should be good and ill be ready for the Smoky Mountain Overland Rally in April. See what the truck can do there and see what the next weakest link is. Im pretty excited about the SMOR since ive never done any wheeling/overlanding event before.
