Hello all,
I have the OME HDs with Bilsteins. Its a bit harsh at times, but damn... it sure can take the twisties. Maybe I'm just young and don't care about smooth ride, but I couldn't ask for more from my setup (well, maybe no NOSE SAG from the added weight from the TJM), but I can barely get my A/T Revos to squeal! This may not be an issue for most, but I drive a twisty twisty road every day to work and have a 45min commute. I don't even have the addcos, I can't imagine handling much better in a car so big and heavy. Also something to keep in mind the mushyer the ride, the more body roll there is. Hence easier to roll in the moose menuver... Espcially since your raising your center of gravity at the same time. Just thought I would throw that out... and MTL_4Runner, why are you lifting? Do you go off road any? If not, why not lower it or juts get some HD rear coils that Performance Products sells, The lowering springs are only an inch or so and the spring rate is progressive, so its not as hard for the little bumps. Just a thought... good luck!

AOR, NWOR, 4WP, look in the back of Petersen's 4wheel and off-road and there are some ads for places in there. Mike at Xtreme can get them for you I believe.

Just wanted to bump this thread, since it's the best thread I've seen on suspension in a while. Due to my purchase of 285/75R16 Dueler A/T revos today, which won't be here for 2-3 weeks, I now have to finish my lift details. I'm having a really hard time deciding as many others seem to be having too.

Does anyone know if the Downey rear springs are firmer than the stock rear springs?

This is the hardest decision I've had to make on my 4runner yet. It's probably becuase theres too many choices.

I'm waiting to hear back on some final information from OME to see what the best setup for my application will be. I've been posting them on other threads, but I'm going to do a final summary on this thread.

Chris
