I have OME 863. It's pretty high.

I used both Downey and AllPro pan hard rod drop/raised.

yeah... the superlift coils that came with the kit never leveled it from the start, and now the coils have sagged... so the rear end is about 2" lower then the front.. so I figure the 5-5.5 inch rear lift should be fairly level with just a bit of T-bar adjustment.
as far as panhard stuff goes, I've got the good-sized superlift drop bracket and we'll see how much more I need.. the superlift bracket and the allpro lift would make for too much so I might just get an adjustable panhard rod..
I'll let you know.

did you need to have the rear driveshaft lengthened? I've heard some people having problems when using 5+ inchs of rear lift.

I had to go to the junk yard and get pre 86's front d-shaft with cv in it. Basically, there's an extra ujoint in there. It suppose to reduce vibration and stuff. I can hear the loudest when I'm coasting. I didn't know what it was first, I thought my trans was going but one call to Marlin, he told me it's the d-shaft.

Just go with rear leaf springs, you'll never get coil springs to stop sagging, they'll always wear out faster and loose lift before leafs Why Switch to Rear Leafs??? 1/2 way down the page . Good luck, hope the OME's work out for ya, post some pics your rig is gona be HUGE.
