Is $971 good for a 2 inch OME lift? with everything i need from springs to shocks to rear shackels to exaust hanger? if this is a good price let me know. if you can beat it then REALLY let me know! now i know that over 2 inch lift i would need to get new hubs to correct the problem with the cv boot. would it be good to spend this much for only 2 inches? let me know what you guys think. please reply, im craving knowledege!

 

Sounds kinda $$$$$. Are you installing this yourself or is that what someone quoted you with the install?

 

just to give you an idea of some sort

this is something i would do. i have access to all the parts needed

 

Check out what Mike has to offer here:

If you're interested I'd strongly suggest that you contact him. He may have a discounted price for forum members.

 

would i need the greaseable rear shackels?

 

Not sure... I think it's just another option to give you more lift. Couldn't be certain though. Did you check out the TTORA FAQ?

hmm... just realized that link doesn't have anything on that...

Sorry

 

the shackels are just what connenct the leaf springs to the body right?

 

I hope so
I'm still new to this whole thing too
At this point you may know more about the parts than I do, ha!

 

Tell you what, I'm going to turn on my AIM - I'm TacomaDood, we can chat about it - might be faster

 

My OME lift only cost 600$, HD springs, and SC shocks. I installed it myself. Fairly easy w/all the writeups and tips on the board. If your spending that much you should just get some SAW's up front and some OME in the rear.....

The OME lifts for the Tacos are more because of the Leaf Springs for the rear. The price he is quoting, I believe, is from Rocky Road Outfitters and it includes shipping. Mike's prices at Xtreme are really good, as well. For $839.92 plus shipping, you can get Sway-A-Way adjustable Coilovers for th front, and Downey Add-A-Leafs and Bilstein 5100 series shocks for the rear. That's probably what I would do for that kind of money.

On my 4Runner I paid around $950 for my complete setup and that was with SAW's which are $650 by themselves.I got all my stuff from Mike at Xtreme. Sounds a bit high if you ask me for that OME setup, but it's probably different with the trucks, I don't know .

 

Thats about what I payed for my setup. Somewhere around $900. The leaf packs are what are expensive. And no you dont have to go with the greasable shackles, I didn't. Only other thing you really need to get to do the install is the front "rear" leaf spring bushings from toyota. The 881 coils with the leaf packs in the back will leave you a little "butt" high. I dunno if you can remove one of those leaves or not. If your only looking for 2" I would prolly just do an add-a-leaf or longer shackles.

 

yea i think im going to go with SAW's up front and then blisten 5100 shocks in the rear with the greasable shackels. thats for a lil over 800. not too bad seeing as im getting coilovers ya know.
