OME/ARB/Revtek?!
 
My Sahara bar may be getting here as soon as next week!
I KNOW that once it gets on, I'm gonna want more lift. My question is if I could add a revtek top out spacer to the 882's I have now? That would give me about .5" more, no? Could I go even higher?

CV's scare the CRAP out of me. As it is now my CV's are at a somewhat normal level, and I dont worry about them as much as I could.

In my situation with the lift, my control arms are actually tilted downwards (assumed normal with a lift). Does the top out spacer fix this to an extent? Or am I misunderstanding this?

you have 882s and no bumper and your CVs are at a fairly stock level? yea right!

the guys i know with 882s are getting 2.5" lift with ARB bumpers and winches.

Dude... you were getting the ARB to level out the cvs... remember?? ;)

User 051420 May 20, 2004 04:26 PM

The levels ARE pretty decent... Yes I know i'm getting the arb to level them out more, but I was thinking maybe it would level it more than enough and I could go back to pushing the limits? :laugh:

They've settled quite a bit more level after the 1k miles I've put on the lift.

the 882s will not sag much with only a bumper.

IMO, those CV angles are too much.

Hmm.. I'm glad to hear they won't sag that much. The CV's have settled down a bit after the 1k miles and an allignment. Those pics were IMMEDIATELY after the lift.

We'll see about all of this though.

Anybody know more about the Revtek Top Out?

i have one...what you need to know?

User 051420 May 20, 2004 07:52 PM

You have one, so theoreticly I could also run one once I get the bumper?

I'm just curious because I'm a bit "nose down" right now, and I'm afraid it'll only go farther.

you can add a revtek topout spacer to your OME coils.

if i was in your shoes, i would install your bumper, drive about 5000 miles, decide if you want more lift, determine amount of desired increase, select a spacer or other option from there.

Thanks for the advise. I knew it could be done, but not sure it was safe with the bumper.

5k miles shouldn't be bad as i'm going on a 2k road trip to WY next weekend..and hopefully my bumper should be here next week.
