    Is OME Still the Go-To 2" Lift Kit?

    However... I don't own or operate lawnchairs, I don't travel with ladders, and the only time the mattress frame risks mud is when I'm dragging it out to the doghouse.. which I attempt to avoid, unlike the magnetic attraction of mud holes to my disco. :-)

    While that was humor, I do like having a spash shield under there... mud gets everywhere in my engine bay.

    Is OME Still the Go-To 2" Lift Kit?

    I can say, from experience, that suspension (and stock height) doesn't mean shitall if you have stock/highway tires on them. It only takes one "I'll just cut through this unpaved area" behind the fast-food joint (in the rain).... to fully and completely embarrass oneself in their "Land Rover"...

    Is OME Still the Go-To 2" Lift Kit?

    Because most humans (myself included) like to personalize our property, which includes preparatory, "just in case", and "ya never know" "upgrades... There's nothing wrong with leaving it stock however, I see nothing wrong with making it your own. And, don't apologize (unless you're from the...

    I am really liking the LT235/85/16. That said, @pm's 7.5x16 looks very interesting at about 1/2"-3/4" taller while maintaining a similar narrow-ish footprint. *either choice requires a fresh cam and decent compression~exhaust because both are like adding an extra OD gear in 5th [or the slushbox...

    What's the diameter of those? ~30.5? The Roverclaws are ~31.7 new. Mine measure out at 32" with 32psi

    Is OME Still the Go-To 2" Lift Kit?

    I absolutely needed the 2" lift to clear the tall & skinnies. Also needed the Camel Cut out back. At least with the Atlander Roverclaw MT2: https://discoweb.org/index.php?threads/camel-cut-how-much.36861/post-1132906 Everything else sounds great but I'm curious: why a one inch spacer? 2"...

    Is OME Still the Go-To 2" Lift Kit?

    100% worth the money. I've had them on for a couple decades and they have sagged to maybe 1-1/2+ inches. Quality stuff. With 235/85/16's (MT's) you *WILL* benefit greatly from the lift! It lets you clear the front trailing fenders with zero rub. You will still need to camel-cut the rears...

    Quality. You can pour your own, if you want to conver to urathane. Lots of durometers available. I used to make subframe bushings for bimmer subframes and lower links. I was pretty messy but it worked pretty well. You have to make a jig to align the bits of course.
