OME 906/880 with Bilstein Shocks

Just finished the replacement of the front and rear shocks and coils on my sons 2002 4R. It was a tough job, but we got it done. For rear, hardest parts were removing and installing the new coils, and the top nut on the shock. For the front, was a pain installing new one as with the OME and Billy it was a bit bigger.

Of course I did not get pre pictures, but here are two pics. First one is with just the back done. second one is job complete. Overall, got about 2 2 inch lift, with about a 1+ inch rake, which is perfect.

Bought the rear OME and shocks on Amazon. Bought the front pre-assembled coil and strut from Wheelers.

Overall, cost was about $850, but I also bought a bunch of cool new tools! It was tough and knuckle busting, but was a good bonding time with me and my son.

That stance looks great. I would add, Billy s perform better at relatively high speeds 20-25mph over road hazards like pot holes cracks etc. Rechecking the torque specs after driving like 30 miles would be a good idea.
