OME Lift Question
Posted: Thu Jun 25, 2009 1:12 pm
I finally found a local shop that will bring in an OME lift to Canada. I am going with the 2" lift. It needs to take the weight of winch and bar in the front and the weight of a family (5-7pas) or my gear loaded truck in the rear plus ocassional trailering. The numbers the guy at the shop came up with are:
Front springs (H/D) OME974
Front shocks OME N21 or N23F
Rear springs (M/D) OMEGQ02AM
Rear shocks (M & H/D OME N29
I had hoped to get constant duty springs for the rear but they would take 6-8 weeks to get here. Guess its a real slow boat.
Basically, I am double checking the parts guy. I am his first Patrol customer. He sellls a lot of ARB for Toyota and North American made trucks. My question to you OME suspension pros is, given the weights I am carry, does it look like I am getting the right springs and shocks for a 2" lift? My Catalogue is pretty vague. It doesn't even say the specific lengths - only saying 30mm-50mm lift or 40mm to 50mm lift. Also, are the M/D springs in the rear heavy enough? Adding airbags is a possibility.
Thanks for your suggestion and feedback.
