OME lift question

Hi all,

I purchased a 2004 sport with the V8 last month, and I'm looking at adding an OME lift to enhance the offroad capability. I do have a question about the coil/shock combo though. I am adding an ARB bumper/winch at the same time of the lift, so coupled with the V8 im looking at the 886 (heavy) front coils (along with the 90000 front shocks). Since i dont do any towing or haul anything heavy in the rear, I'm looking at only putting 895 (the "firm") coils along with the 60005 shocks on the rear to reduce the overly firm/boucey ride due to the stock weight in the rear. Has any one mixed the heavy/firm setup? Any negatives to doing this instead of just going heavy all the way around? Thanks for the help!

Talk to Toytec, or rocky-road.com. Very knowledgeable people. I havent tried it personally, but i think the 895's are plenty stiff unless you are adding weight to the rear. I would think you would be fine with 886's and 895's but i would love to be corrected if im wrong.
