OME Suppliers

Well Guys,

I am finally ready to get my lift kit for my rig and am getting an OME kit. I have tried email Mike at xtreme a few times but I don't know if he is too busy or what but he hasn't come back to me.

So,
Where else is a good place to get the kit? I have to factor in the shipping to Ireland. Hopefully I can get it for a good price.
If any of you guys can help in this area it would be very appreciated.

front -
(2) OME 881 coils
(2) OME 95PF5 5MM Trim Packers
(2) OME N91S struts
rear -
(2) OME 890 coils
(2) OME N86 shocks

Is this the correct set up for my application.
I will be 90% on road, with towing a jetski at the weekend. Some very minor offroading, trail stuff, no rockcrawling.

Main reason for the lift is to clear 285/75's on Toyota 8" rims.

Cheers
Ciaran.

That's a good setup. I have the same one on my daily driven, occasional tow '00 but I chose the "c" shocks.
I bought mine from Mike though. It took a while to get in touch but once I made contact, the shipping was swift.

I also bought mine from Mike, but aside from him I'd try Rocky Road Outfitters or Wheeler's Off Road. Good luck!

Ciaran,

I got my stuff from another Mike at 4x4Rockshop

Bamachem got his ARB bumper from them too! They will work with you! I got all my stuff w/shipping for around $600. Let me know if I can help Ciaran.

I got mine from www.4x4connection.com . They're located on the US east coast which would save you a few bucks on shipping.

Cmar, I spoke to ARB a little while ago to see if we could get ARB Australia to send directly to you to save you that outrageous freight. They cannot do that, however, we could also investigate if there is an OME distributor somewhere closer to you.

Let me know!

Mike

Hey Mike,

That would be great. There is not a big user base in Ireland for stuff like this. I would say that when I get the kit it will be the only one in the country. But anything that can help with shipping would be great.
