Default OME is ON

I put my OME on this past weekend. It was pretty easy. I used the coil compressors and I had no problem. I did break the threads off of one of the rear shock mounts and had to have some new threads welded back on. New shocks and springs I can tell the way it handles for sure. I did not take the sway bars off but I did use two jacks one to jack up the the frame and one to raise the axle. Now its time for some new tires.

You can't just tell us about installing a lift. We need pictures. Before and after would be great.

I will post some pics. What is the best way to put them on here without having to link to another site?

Click new reply and then manage attachments towards the bottom. Most of the time it will re-size them, now... Put it directly in the post

I'm running 265/70R17 Silent Armors on my Dodge and I love them. Have almost 5000 miles on them now and wouldn't trade them.

what is that a 31 or 32 inch tire? Could you go any bigger? I'm wanting to do a 33 on mine and don't want to go higher than the 3" lift but I'll probably have to

The 265 75 R16 is 31.6 X 10.4 R16 . I dont think 33's would do too good with just the OME 751 front and the 762 rear. Any bigger I could see some rubbing when loaded and hitting the trails.
