I have a ShrockWorks Bumper up front without a winch, CBI rear with carrier on the rear. I'm running the 885/895 springs.

I put OME springs on my 5100's a few weeks ago with no issue. Rides great.

Nevada, Thanks for the info, its not what I wanted to hear but told me what I need to do before I take it in to get aligned.

thanks for the idea, i guess that could get me out of this bind if the alignment shop cant fix it. Ive yanked several steering wheels off over the years, but never one with all the gadgets and airbags in them.

let me ask the question this way to see if anyone knows, Is there enough room in adjusting the both tie-rod ends to compensate for a steering wheel that's currently 180 degrees from center?

We got the body lift accomplished a few days ago while the vehicle was down for lots of upgrades. In the course of installing the steering extension for the body lift we managed to rotate the steering wheel 170-190 degrees off center. Since that spacer is such a pain in the ass to get in place...

Nice work on the lift, i did the same thing this weekend too. mine had 195k miles but it sounds like we fought similar battles with bolts. I opted to let my local shop assemble my shocks. I did discover that both my CV boots were torn so I had to toss in an axle replacement with mine too. So...

I plan to run two relay control boxes. The first box will run 2 fused circuits for items like USB charger or other misc powered items in the cab. It will also run 4 switch controlled relays. The switch circuits are on a fused line and the higher draw items are picked with a relay and on a...

While is sit and wait for the CBI Bumper and suspension to arrive, I got busy with the wiring for the lighting. I started searching for switches and relay to control the lights and stumbled on the Bussman Relay boxes on these threads. Auxiliary fuse/relay panel Custom Relay and Fuse Box for...

Thanks ARK, You were one of the members I was hoping might chime in on my question. I believe I will go the 885/895 route. I'd rather lose some lift to gain some comfort and avoid the stiffness.

/may the dead horse carcass be brought out for another flogging. Couple quick questions on the OME springs. At the same time I install my OME/Billstein Lift, I will be adding a Shrockworks front bumper and a CBI-Offroad rear bumper with swingout. I'm torn on which OME spring to run for my...

That would be my question as well. I'm considering running the TT adjustable fronts with the MT/Icon rears.

Thanks for the tip on the All Pro, I'll start to do some research on them and the MT long travels. The only hesitation I had towards the OW set up was all the people complaining about the noises coming from their RadFlo's.

I got my motor from Andy at Diamond Auto in Frontenac Wisconsin. They had a 2008 with 34k miles. They were asking $2500 for the motor, plus $200 for shipping and another $300 for core. I hate the core scam some yards play, but hey, its still a 34k mile motor to my door for $3k. Your going to...

So this adventure starts off with me relocating back to Kansas City, Mo after a 2 yr relocation run with my company in Wichita, KS. I quit the Corp Job after 15 years and went to work at a family owned company which meant I was back in KC. It also means I had to give up the free company car...
