OME lift (Front: 884/90000, Rear: 895E/60004)

[kage888]

Appreciate the information - I want to keep the factory rake but want a lift all around of 1.5-2inches. Was this achieved with the OME 883/895E?

I am running a full OME setup. I initially installed as the OP had, 884/895e. I found that with that setup my hub to wheel well was 23" up front, 23.25" rear, essentially level. My issue is that it drove and looked nose high. I called ARB and spoke with them. They said 895e were not intended to be paired with 884s. That would give rake on a 4th gen V6. They said 883s were proper pairing up front. Just like 895 and 895e, the 883 and 884 are same spring rates they are just 10mm or 1/2" difference in height. Current ride heights are 22" and 23ish" with front DS trim making it level.
I love the ride and am very happy with the purchase. I am not a rock crawler so the kit does what I ask very well. I have not installed UCAs and am just out of oem spec for caster but no noticable performance or wear effects. CV angle is much better at this setup than with 884s.
See my build thread for pics.

Thanks. This is exactly what I've been hoping to read. Ordering from Slee this week.

...Ordering from Slee...

That's the setup I'm running, full OME listed in sig line, installed March of this year by the pros at Slee. Couldn't be more satisfied for my use/objectives.

This thread has been extremely valuable even though it started 5 years ago. I'm currently deciding between 883/895e or 884/Superflex and I'm wondering what each of you ended up doing with your UCAs. Now that you have many miles on your chosen lift kit, have you had any issues with stock UCAs?

I have a 2009 V6 Stock 4runner and my research seems to indicate that the 2" 883/895e will be able to get back to factory specs for the front end. Was this your experience?

Some of you also ran 884/895e at some point. Were you able to get the front end back to within factory spec?

Thanks for posing this question. I'm also seriously looking at OME and am wondering about UCAs as well. A little bit of caster is not an issue for me if the toe is alright, so I was hoping not to spend the extra 600 on total racings

I retained stock, zero issues to-date (only been ~4 months tho). My setup tracks well at-speed and on various road conditions, no unusual tire wear (and I've been monitoring), etc.

The only thing I would do differently, and I was going to have it done during the initial install but let myself get talked out of it, would be to add a driver-side front OME Trim Packer. It's trivial s*** in the real-world but I measure about .4" lower and one of these days I might waste the time, energy and a few bucks to resolve that. I have to say this though, you'd have to pull-out a tape measure to know it. Note that with the 883/895e setup you will retain rake.

Measurements: 1st pic is from March during the post-install alignment and the 2nd is a "check" performed at a dealership earlier this month. I'm going to go back to Slee end of year and have them check again on their gear (they did the install/alignment - 1st pic data).

For those using 883/895e, what is your Blistein 5100 shock setting?

How much lift in the front did you get from the 883's?
