Hi guys I have an 06 limited with tbe bilstean 5100s all around and maxed out to the 2.5" up front. I have the ome springs in the back.
I want another 1" up front to make it a total of about 4" and it will make it more even with the rear.
What should I buy? Anyone with pics that have done this? Im in the langley bc area. Any recommendations of a place to get it done for a reasonable rate?
Thanks!

You could add a 1/2" spacer (yielding you 1" more), but with that much lift you will need castor corrected UCA's. Or you could add OME 885's up front.
 
[MENTION=58432]Pillar[/MENTION] i just responded to you in the "lift and tire central" thread, and i second what [MENTION=86678]ebg18t[/MENTION] said, best option is to go with a lift coil, OME, eibach, whatever you like, cause thats really the best way to do it with the set up you have

Hey man I'm BC as well...I would recomend to go for fj springs up front to give It a slight lift rather than oe springs. I'm very pleased how mine turned out and gave that comfort ride I was looking for. By the way how many inches u got on the rear with the ome springs?
 
Anyone with pics of your truck with the 5100s at 2.5 with fj springs and also wih Old Man Emu springs. What would even it out better out of those two options you guys suggested?

Got downtravel....you won't w 4" up front out of a spacer/coil lift!! If you are 2wd, look into a lift spindle, if 4wd, look into a drop bracket kit
