To hell with revolvers, ive watched em unload, bind, everything...Boomerangs are just angled from front to back, they will give you better articulation, espically with relocation boxes. Your rear will be in GREAT shape with that combo (OME 2" leaves, Rec. Boxes, and Boomerang shackles)

This thread makes my head hurt.

what are rec. boxes? never hear that term before

Relocation boxes. They relocate your shackle mount a bit forward to give you a better shackle angle and allow for more droop, and compression.

thanks, and what about the so called "issue" of the shackle brackets on xj's cracking with extended shackles?
because i really like the OME lift but i seriously need more height

Havent heard of that..?

just thought id raise it, but i do like the sound of the relocation bracket you posted
so the 3" lowering gives 1.5" lift because its only lowering half the spring, i get that bit.
how much would you expect the 5"s forward would do? but seeings the spring is already set to a certain length, i dont see how the spring would fit.

Thanks everyone for all your help by the way, especially XJ88, you will be heavily credited when i get around to the build thread

haha why is that?
sorry if im going on abit, just trying to get all the facts before i start my build
do it once, do it right...

Id only suspect that be an issue in rusty rigs..ive honestly never heard of any big issues with the stock mounting points..besides..the relocation boxes mount up into the stock point then hang down and give you a few different mounting locations so you can tweak your angle and lift height. It will be hard to say how much lift it will give you but you can move the shackle forward/backward to get the height/angle that you really want.

Oh ok, so it is fairly adjustable, that will work well. if my math is right, i should end up with about 4.5" in the rear and 3" in the front, that sounds ok to me, especially after i put my gear in the back it'll be about 4" in the back

If you have 2 inch coils add a 2 inch spacer up front... and youll come out closer to even...Id still recommend getting new coils but youll be fine with spacers..I just dont care for a spacer thats much over an inch.

yeah, ill see what the price difference is, i just like peace of mind that OME is an aussie made quality product.

so 4" total lift, 31's, lockers f&r, rear bar w/tire carrier, sliders, skids, roof rack, winch, gps, storage system, tools, fridge, recovery gear and spares.

sounds like ive got one hell of a build coming along haha

Haha. Im pretty pumped for it. My build is about half done. I need to invest in more armor, bumpers, and lockers and mine will be done.

did u regear for 33's? and does it rub with 4.5 inches lift?
