I'm about to pull the trigger on getting a complete OME kit for my 60 but I'm a bit uncertain about a couple of things..
My 60 currently has a 3F and I'm also going to be installing a rear bumper with wheel and Jerry can carriers. I also have a front bar with a winch that I'm going to be putting back on. In the near future Im looking at doing a diesel swop to either a 12H-T or a 1HD-T and I want to make sure that I get the right shocks and springs.
The dude at the place that sells them recommended that I go for the medium rears (CS004RA/B) and the heavy duty fronts (CS004F). I checked in the catalogue and I see that there is a heavier rated front pack for Diesel trucks (CS005F), shouldn't I rather go for these from the get go? How much difference will it make if I still have a 3F in there? Will the ride suck with the lighter motor? Also if I go for this heavier option will it not make the nose of my truck look a bit jacked up? Is the 005 the same as the 004 but just with an extra leaf, and if so could I just leave out that leaf and add it back when I do the swop and is it a relatively straightforward job?
I'm looking for a slightly cushier ride and I don't really do heavy loads much, I see there are also different shock options for the front and rears what is the difference between these?
Lots of questions but hopefully someone can guide me in the right direction..
Thanks guys
