It is amazing! It rides ALOT better than stock, and with my 265/75/16 M/T tires, it looks awesome!.

I just followed the installation instruction on EE, and everything went smooth. Only took about 4 hours total. The only thing different on the install I did was on the rear, I was able to get enough length out of the Brake Lines by undoing the bracket that holds the line, rather than taking the caliper off. I was suprised at how easy everything went.

Anyway, I would also like to thank EE for thier speedy service. I ordered the springs and spacers on Monday of Last week and the shocks on Tuesday, I had the springs by Thursday and the shocks by Friday! I am in Dallas, so not to bad from Cali. Anyway just thought I would chime in, by the way, it is a 2K Disco. :-)

Jordan-

Congrats! the 3" lift kicks ass.

I'm curious, did you use their new shopping cart or did you phone in your order?

Make sure you check all the bolts you loosened or removed in about 50 miles or so, just to make sure they're all still nice and tight!

Same here....I bought my set of OME HD's over the holidays and the service (John-personal phone call) was outstanding...even pointed me to another supplier for parts not in stock!!!

GO EE, and the sticker is on the back!!!

Time for vendors ratings page, me think ;)

I would vouch for EE too - i got my new longer shocks in no time (something like over weekend) with regular shipping, packaged very good. Was very impressed that John managed to not misspell my name - as it happens pretty often :-)

So did you go with OME all the way? (Shocks and springs?) Which model springs? I'm about to make the call myself.

Yeah, I went ahead with shocks and springs. Here is what I got for my 2K Disco II:

Front:
751 -- Springs
N107 -- Shocks

Rear:
781 -- Springs
1" ExpeditionWare Spacers
N108 -- Shocks

That is my new setup.
