Default OME lift- Which One (HELP!)

I know I know Info is everywhere but I still can't decide

I have shrockworks rock rails
shrockworks stubby front bumper
smitty built winch
use both hard and soft tops
plan on getting a shrockworks rear bumper

I drive an unlimited and plan on keeping the rubicon wheels and tires for the foreseeable future. I don't mind some fenderwell showing.

The big problem is I only have about 4-5" of clearance coming into my garage.

Please help

Have gift certificates going to pull trigger soon!!!

With the Shrockworks front and rear bumpers + winch you are going to want the OME HD for the front and rear. I bought the HD front and standard rear coils as I don't plan to but on an aftermarket bumper anytime soon. Call David at Northridge 4x4, give him your vehicle specs and he will dial you in.

BTW: I am very happy with the OME lift and JKS adj track bars, zero complaints.

Call David and tell him what you posted here and he will hook you up. He knows what he is talking about and you can be assured you will be happy with what you get, otherwise he will take care of it for you, he has the best customer service by far!

I got my HD lift installed and it is perfect. I love it. I kept the rubi tires and wheels and I think its great. It looks like what I think it should come from the factory as. Its not to big or outrageous and its great on road as well as off.

Thanks again for the help guys
