It will be cheaper in the US I paid $1400AUD for the bumper you guys can get it for $1000AUD!!! I was told they can put spacers in to offset extra weight up front I wasnt told anything about different spings / shocks combos.

As far as how much lift I want I mostly do sand and a little bit of mud in the short term I want to fit 33inch tyres in the long term I might want to go to 35's. Would 2 inches be enough for 35's?

Can I add spacers to the OME lift if 2 inches isnt enough in the future?

On a side note Ive just spent about 4 hours fitting the ARB bar and its not done yet its a massive job!!!! Im glad we dont have the crash cans in Australia because that would make it heaps more complicated.

Can anyone tell me for my light offroading would I be better off paying $900AUD for the TF 2.5 BB or $1500 for the OME roughly 2inches?

I use my car for work so on road handling is important.

PICS of my ARB bar coming soon.

Thanks,

Dave

Can't speak highly enough for OME. I had a 2" OME HD on my TJ. Actually provided about 2.5", and I had 2" spacers on top of that to run 35s. Even with the spacers, it rode WAY BETTER than stock, especially for me with an hour commute.

When I lift the JK, it's going to be with an OME setup.
