replaced my ome coils with LC coils, pics inside

neliconcept · 02-26-2007, 08:29 AM

I'll be getting a CBI tire carrier soon for my hitch and i needed a spring that will accommodate that and wont be lower then the front end.

first pic is ome that measured at 40.5 inchs with 33s and 2 inch bl and loadddded down with hi jack, tire, 2 jack stands, subs, hitch, and springs. 43 inchs for that same stuff minus the jack stands and hi jack with the LC coils

LC coils

yes im a picture whore, but i like to share my new "tiny" little mods with everybody

ill be sure to make a writeup of my tire carrier when it comes though

sorry, but did you really name your truck veronica?

neliconcept · 02-26-2007, 08:42 AM

yeah why not!

frodin1 · 02-26-2007, 09:08 AM

Which coils did you go for exactly? Do you have the color codes or the year they were off of? The reason I ask Is because alot of people are going this route, but are finding that there's different springs out there. LX coils which are very abundant, there's like 8.5 /9 wraps and 7's that apparently is what people really want. Just wondering??

Ric · 02-26-2007, 09:58 AM

looks sweet, cant wait to see the tire carrier.

kmcc78240 · 02-26-2007, 10:01 AM

What is happening to the OME coils?

Oh yeah it looks great.

neliconcept · 02-26-2007, 11:38 AM

jeffoto is buying them, about to ship em out today

emptypockets · 02-26-2007, 11:41 AM

Looking great neliconcept...welcome to the LC club! How's the Tundra/OME combination working up front for you? My front suspension is next up on the mod list; got Daystar 2.5" spacers right now.

neliconcept · 02-26-2007, 11:49 AM

tundras are awesome, good flex, however i dont have much down travel as my balljoints will hit the coils within only 2 inchs of down travel.

TRDatVT · 02-26-2007, 12:38 PM

no ÅÅÅÅ... I have busted an upper ball-joint boot on one side... Im taking out 2 of my spacers and lowering the back down some to try and avoid this problem without having to get limiting straps.

TACOKRAWL · 02-26-2007, 01:13 PM

Blake,
Those look awesome, and it does't look that much higher in the rear than in the front. Your runner sure looks huge in your pics! You could prob. fit 315's with no problem.......................

thanks Matt, dunno if 35s are in my future though.

Dang Josh, already? i guess i need to take a look at my balljoints to make sure i didnt break anything.

grimpy · 02-26-2007, 05:22 PM

Sweet... My rear is about 40.5" right now also... When my LC's arrive, I hope I get the same results... I'm sitting like the first pic.

BTW, what type of hitch do you have on there?

neliconcept · 02-26-2007, 06:36 PM

reese hitch that i got from my friend in greenville SC

grimpy · 02-26-2007, 07:16 PM

thanks for the info bro... looks alot better than the stock one with a BL.

calrockx · 02-26-2007, 07:45 PM

you have a nice looking truck.

will you be doing a 4wd swap to it?

xcmountain80 · 02-26-2007, 07:48 PM

SC4Runner · 02-26-2007, 07:50 PM

Did you just have to flip your tow hitch to get it up there like that? Pisses me off I can't do that..

fortunatly my mom decided to buy the tire carrier for me as I sort of needed a place to put the spare, and ive had these springs layin around for quite a while.

thanks for the comment cal
