Thanks RAYPLA! I take it you are happy with your OME lift? Any vibrations or wobbles, or other things to worry about? From what I have read, with a 2" lift I don't need to worry about SYE or transfer case drops - is this your experience?

I'm all sorts of happy The truck handles all situations better than stock. Towing is vastly improved. When I want another couple inches I have a few options 1. The OME aal, I've read that it nets 1-1.5" and 2. a shackle 1-2" . So don't be scared! I pieced mine together over 6 months and was very happy. I bought the leafs, put them on rode around for a bit like that, then the coils then front shocks and Disconnects. I still have the rear connected b/c I tow often
Here is a few pics
