Default OME lift ordered

OME HD 779/762 springs, check, OME Nitro Sport shocks, check, OME steering stabilizer, check, 4 brake rotors, check, Akebono brake pads, check, rear right caliper, check, bloody knuckles and cursing, check hahaha :P oh, and a happy Land Rover, check

lift ships on the 15th, i will post pictures and measurements of before and after. brake parts will be here monday morning. my rear right caliper was hanging up, tore up the pads on that corner, only about 1/16" of pad left on that corner(took caliper apart, pushed in piston to see if i could keep it from hanging up but it still drags), rotors were grooved badly all around though, but plenty of pad left, ithink they are all original, 92k miles, everything needed replaced soon anyways

any tips or reminders? i will be spraying all bolts with PB Blaster days before, and will reassemble everything with anti-sieze. i have the RAVE downloaded for the torque specs

If you have not started yet, can you take measurements from the ground to the trim ver the wheel on each corner? I am curious about how high the actual lift is. Also, who did you order from, recommendations? I am ready to order the same.

i did mine in my tiny garage in the cold in under 3.5hrs stopping for a couple beers in between fronts and rears.

no i was expecting it yesterday, but it didnt come. hopefully today, if not, then definitely monday. being easter weekend and all. i cant wait! and ill take measurements today. ill take the measurement from the center of the wheel to the bottom of the flare, more accurate, tire "bulge" will vary etc.

You going 33 or staying with the 31" tire?
