yeah, whenever i have more disposable income, i'll be putting a full OME suspension on my truck. my stock suspension is tired after 110K miles and some mild/moderate off roading... haha.

and i agree! it's way more fun to get out there and *DO* stuff, but sometimes i also like to be a couch potato, ha.

i also like symphonies, theater, and some musicals. museums of all kinds, things like that. right now i'm busy touring numerous Civil War battlefields. it's all different, but it's all very cool and intereting.

After 110k?
Yeah, you need new shocks.
I guarantee you'll feel a MAJOR difference in your ride, with that much mileage on your shocks.

My buddy just got the OME front and put the 5100's and AAL in the rear. He tried to shoe on some 17x8 Procomp 7089 w/285's and it wasn't happening so he went with 265 Open Country's! He's happy with the setup.

I have the Donahoe c/o and rear shocks w/Total Chaos UCAs. I know they are serviceable so they are due. I thought about going with a L/T Baja setup but I don't ride as many trails as I used to.

yeah, i honestly don't wheel my truck enough to where i need a really fancy suspension. i just want something solid, with a slight lift, that gives me a little better load-carrying capability, and i feel the OME suspension provides all of these things.

and Lex, i know i need new shocks, just haven't gotten to it yet. they'll last just fine until i have a grand to spend on it. i think i also have a ball joint with a torn boot, so that's also only a matter of time... it'll all get done soon enough though.
