OME vs. SAW vs. Donahoe

I mostly post on TTORA but I'm over here to see what the consensus is on this topic.

I have a 2003 Taco X-cab V6 w/ an ARB/ M8000. My front end is sagging and I would like to level it back out. I like OME stuff, I used it on my jeeps for years. I'm concerned about the maintenance involved in owning coilovers. I can do it but I dont want to have to. Anyone like their OME stuff or does it crap out quickly with weight on it? What's the word over here in Yotatech land?

Search this topic as there is a TON of info you will find useful here.

First question ? Are you pre-running or crawling as here, the long travel coil over crowd seem to pre-run while the OME crowd tend to crawl.

i searched and found some very useful info.

I mostly do trail rides (crawlin) when offroad. Mostly, this truck will see road use. I am planning a 5000 mile road trip soon and I need it to ride fairly smooth on the highway.
