Looking for confirmation about my 'Upgrade Path'

[TJ]

I had the TJ running for ages on a 4 inch lift and just the tc drop with no problems.

Issues occur 1) when offroad and flexing = increased d/s angle = potential bent ooutput shaft and 2) when offroading the "shovel" x-member is bad enough catching on things, another inch lower with a t/c drop and ya may as well stick to the bitumin.

Put in the sye and a small body lift and you can tummy tuck that puppy and never worry about being high-centered again.

I ran OME 2.5 inch lift with no SYE or t/c drop. I got away with motor mount lift. However, I did eventually bent the output shaft one day. SYE is not super urgent on a small lift, but it is a much better upgrade in the long run.

The OME lift is just springs & Shocks isnt it....? no control arms...?
How did you find it...?

I think Ive settled on an SYE as a later upgrade...
So, Im toying with either an OME lift and Buckshot 33's or a cheaper lift (ORV or RC) with 32" Simex...

Cheers

OME lift included springs, shocks, bump stop spacers, coil spacers and rear track bar bracket.

It worked very well. However when I went with heavy bars front and rear and winch, springs started sagging. I think you get higherrated springs now that were not available before. They are a good reputable brand.

I have no experience of the other brand are considering.
