more lift to the superlift

[kmax]

What did you pay for your custom coils, if I may ask.

lekmedm - They ran me about 400 bucks. I also had ordered a brand new original equipment coil from a local dealer so I could send it to Deaver to match it dimensionally. That ran me another 85 bucks (and I still have it - not much you can do with one coil). But it was worth it to me since the custom springs installed without a single issue. So that modification totaled around 500 dollars, but I had legitimate lift, with good down-travel to limits that didn't trash the balljoints.

I know you said it cant be done.. but I talked to txbajacommander personally and he told me that he has the OME struts and springs up front along with the Superlift spacer. He told me he didnt have to do any cutting to the springs. I'm wanting to do the same thing he did... I have the same year and same engine commander that he has, and i'm also 2wd. My question is.. which springs would I be better off going with to do this? the XK light duty or XK medium duty?

What springs did txbajacommander use?

Based on Kmax and Phunkydude, as well as Omelet on JF (all of whom who have done this), I wouldnt even attempt it with the OME HD (XK medium duty) springs. So if you have a choice, give the OME MD (XK light duty) springs a try and let us know how it works out for ya.

That'll help me figure out how much of a coil I want to cut off as well

Not sure lol, he hasnt messaged me back about that yet. I dont have any extra weight up front except for the grille guard i might be getting so yeah. I'll go with the MD springs and try that. What would you guys reccomend for UCA's? I have my sights set on JBA's cause I dont want to deal with RRO customer service especially around christmas time...

Might want to wait until the new arms are done, especially with the setup you're planning on running.

Are the new ones going to be made to use with stock or OME springs? I'd love to wait, but I'm planning on getting them for Christmas.. lol.

They're meant to be used with a 2" OME lift. His current arms will work as well, the new ones will help prevent the spindle hitting the strut when the suspension droops.
