OME steering stabilizer and shocks

I am looking to purchase an OME steering stabilizer for my 2nd gen. runner and mabe some OME rear shocks. From what Ive read OME make some 1.5" rear coils to rid of the sag in the 2nd gen. runners and I would assume that they make some longer shocks to compensate for the lift. Since i already have downey HD rear coils i am just looking for the shocks. What is the part # for the steering stabilizer and the rear shocks? Also does anyone know who carries OME?
Thanks

So are those shocks alittle longer then the stock ones i would assume? Also where are you getting your sway-bar disco's?
Thanks

I have been thinking about Lee's
Discos

They seem to be pretty good for the money

Good choice

Those are the ones that I have been looking at.

Is it ok to ride with no rear sway bar and get disconnects for the front? What would I expect with this setup?

I was planning on doing the same thing. I took the rear sway bar off my old pathfinder and noticed no difference. I think with Downey HD coils there will be no difference.

Just installed OME & Stabilizer last weekend still using the factory shocks.
Picked up the back end about 2-2-1/2"
Great ride!

Much better handling. No steering wander. Yo kinda have to beat the nut on the center bar into tiny pieces with a cold chisel and then use a pickle bar to pop it off. Use a 5# short handle sledge. Think of it as a 5 iron when swinging with good follow thru.
The OME its the only stabilizer that's an exact fit.
