Maybe if we get enough together we can get a group buy. I'd like some OME myself who else would be in.

I'm all about saving money. I'd like to have the SAWS and probably Downey's with OME firm or comfort shocks.

I'd be in for OME's all around.

Shocks and coils.

I'd be interested... but I think to geta group buy going, everyone will have to decide on one setup.

I'm looking to do SAW's up front and a Downey/Bilstein setup in the rear.

I am interested in the pp springs. Unfortunately, they say they are unavailable for 2002.

We probably would have to decide on one setup, but if we take enough business to a seller they may give us a discount on whatever. I would like SAW's but I can't afford the price difference.

Instead of Saws, what are the other options for shock/spring setups for up front? How do they compare in ride quality and off-road worthiness?

besides SAW you can get OME springs and shocks to provide lift. The most important difference would be that OME springs aren't adjustable, and the SAW's are, so if you add an ARB or TJM then you won't have as many options for lifting the front back up if the extra weight causes any sag.

Yes I know that's probably the best price on those on earth but I was hoping to do a complete lift for that much or less.

So is the ride quality very similar then between the OME spring/shock combo and the SAWS, and the onlymain advantage being the adjustability of the SAWS?

I don't know about the ride, i've never ridden in either of them. I know the biggest difference is the SAW's adjustability.

Very interesting, as I'm not so much interested in the adjustability, although nice, but moreso for height and overall ride quality.

Don't care what any of you think,I am staying with IFS up front!

But I am interested in a lift, and I mean soon. My rear end is really starting to sag. My trucks back ain't doing much better

I came back from colorado loaded down with a bunch of gear. and it was low back there and was pretty bouncy. If I have to get springs, I would rather save up and get a full lift.

So I am in.

I would be in on OME springs and shocks it just all depends on what kind of price we could get, because i have a possible front lift lined up used and i wouldn't want to pay a lot more for a new one.
