I dont know much about your lift. I just know that most people on this forum do the CORNFED lift or use spacers... What kind of lift do you have ?? Again,,, you have a slick ride without going over the top...PLEASE give me details i am an idiot but at the same time trying to learn from you pros!

The spacer provide the look with a lower price point. Replacing with longer travel suspension provides the look and improves the ride at a higher price point. This is just imo of course, since I did not like the much softer feel of the stock suspension. Body roll in corners and nose diving during braking was greatly improved.

For the best performance and adjustability you can go with adjustable coilovers at an even higher price point. You just need to figure out your needs and budget!

Thanks for the compliments everyone, I really appreciate them!

Nice eye! We are probably headed up to Daniels Ridge this weekend for a Hare Scramble race.

That suspension kit is not compatible with the X-Reas shocks correct???? Your were required to get longer travel shocks right??

Thanks

You will need to disconnect the x-reas to install the OME or any upgraded suspension lift or shocks. Yes, it is both the coils and shocks. If you ever plan to be around the Winston-Salem area hit me up and you can take it for a spin to compare the differences with the x-reas. However, the way I understand it, the x-reas has no or negative benefits in off-road applications.

The first thing I noticed with the OME, while still running the stock tires, was that it tightened up the ride all around very nicely. Not harsh at all, but just much more responsive to driver input. Most of my vehicles in the past have been 4x4 vehicles with firmer shocks, the last was a Tundra w/ the TRD package, and the soft stock shocks felt like a minivan to me!

As mentioned in a previous post the nose-diving when braking and body roll in the turns was greatly reduced. Off-road the benefits are even more easily noticed. My personal opinon is that you will have a better ride with the OME and no x-reas vs. x-reas by itself or with a spacer lift.

Hope that helps!

You got it! I almost always enjoy Andrews, as you may already know, Curt and Mike are great guys and take very good care of the place. However I have broken ribs there... twice!

Yea they do take care of it.

They just opened back up last weekend and Mike had the track groomed very well. You need to come back down and check it out.

When did you break your ribs out there? I may of been out there.
