Do I need any other parts to install an OME lift?
Happy Holidays Everyone!
I was wondering if I needed any other parts in addition to the springs and shocks. Do the air spings bolt on or fit in some kind of a cup that is bolted on? Also, I talked to the used car dealer I bought it (99 D2) from. He said if you do the coil conversion the dealer has to hook it up to a computer to turn something off. I don't have the option of raising and lowering my rear air suspension. Will the OME 2" springs/shocks make it a harder sportier ride? Will it be bone jarring? If you could rate the factory suspension setup at 100%, and let's say a bone jarring/back aching ride at 0%..... Where will I be with the new OME 2" set? Thanks everyone.

Andrew,
Does your SLS/ rear air suspension still work, if so, why get rid of it? You can order a 2" SLS spacer from, http://www.rovertym.com/
that will allow you to raise the rear of the truck to match the 2" lift from a set of 2" Old Man Emu front coils then just replace the 4 shocks and the steering stabilizer with the H.D. Old Man Emu shocks.
Which is easier for you, ordering thru the U.S. or Austriala?
