So I've bought Eibach Pro-Truck Shocks and OME 890 for the rear so far. I was planning to run OME 881 in the front, but problem is they are on back order for who knows how long...

What would be comparable? The Eibach 2.5" ? (E30-82-006-05-20) lift springs?

I realize this is a bit of an odd arrangement of Eibach/ome lol. Originally, I chose the Eibach shocks over 5100s on the premise that they might be valved somewhat softer. Then I chose the OME springs over Eibachs because the rears need spacers to match the front height which I thought was dumb

Well I just put in my 210v's after outboarding the rear shocks (had 891's before). Jesus, it's like a 5"+ rake! FFS! I have a eimkeiths bumper, spare inside and a full f150 fuel tank and it still sits that high. Though I'll be adding a swingout shortly, 3 gas cans, water and a drawer and sleeping platform soon too. But I still don't think it will drop the height that much.

So I don't quite know what spring to run yet again. Either a 891 again (it saged about 2 inches or more), the lc 7.5 wrap 48131-6A570, maybe a 906 or 890?man I wish there were more springs to choose from.

Lotsa folks recommend and run the OME 861s with setups like yours. Landcruiser springs.

Hope this helps.

Thanks guys, I'll give the ome 861's a try and see what happens.

The good thing now as it sits I can check the oil level in my driveway LOL 😆

Now THATis one sexy rig!!!! Sheesh!! Someone call the fire department!!!!!

I run the 861's on my rig and I love them. I've got LC80 Tokico shocks in the rear to pair with them and I think it's an excellent setup. I'll attach a picture for reference. This was immediately after install. Like I finished it up and took this picture.

My 861's replaced my old and worn LC80 springs. They served their purpose and I still have them in my closet, I just wanted something new.

Thanks, just got the 861's on Saturday. I too ran some lc80 kyb shocks, but finally did the outboarding and 10" shocks.

I'm off tomorrow so I'll toss them in. I have a substantial amount of permanent weight in the back of the 4r. So I hope it levels out with a slight rake. I also got a set of new lc80 springs, 48131-6A570, to also see what that does. I might measure out for rear limit straps when I'm off too, if I have time.

The p/n you listed is the same exact one for the LC80 springs I had. I ran them for a little more than 100K miles if memory serves me correctly. They were fine but towards the end they were bouncy and I didn't like that. I think the 861's are nice and stiff and give that solid feeling, at least to me they do. That's why I enjoy them so much.
