Settling on the OMEss

Finally got my 880s on and it looks like I have 2", at least, - this is from the coils plus 2 trims on the driver side.


I didnt want this much lift - how much can I expect these things to settle....should I take them wheeling and flex the suspension a bit? will that help settle these things?

right now my front is higher than the rear by about .5"

Why did you put 2 trim packers on the Drivers side? Was it leaning?

go flex it. they will settle at least 0.5" after some good hard compressions.

no - I was anticipating leaning in the future as lots of taco people have experienced it

anyways - I just dont want to take the whole assembly apart again.

if these are new 880s, they will settle.... a lot.

mine took about 2 weeks to fully settle.
