After 11 years, I finally decided to do some mods to the ol' Runner. Some old Bilsteins and factory springs were replaced with OME shocks, springs, and steering stabilizer. I got rid of the rusty Manik grille guard and put on a TJM T13 bull bar.

Still waiting for torsion bars, fender flares, and sliders. I hope to order those in a few weeks. I also covered up the rusting exhaust pipe with a black chrome tip ($8 at Advance Auto Parts)--that should tide me over until I can get an exhaust upgrade.

Check it out and let me know what you think.

I'm also selling my running boards in case anybody is interested...

i forgot to ask how do the ome's ride and how much did it run you for springs and shocks?

CTB, where do you live now?

96_First_Responder, other than the height, I really didn't notice a difference in the ride from the stock setup. It's a bit stiffer, but the rear springs were so shot, that even a new set of stock springs would have made the ride stiffer.

I got everything done at 4x4connection (www.4x4connection.com). The springs were $62/each and the shocks were $72/each. The steering stabilizer was $56.

Richey,

We left VA for Georgia, then Colorado, and now I'm back in SC. I go to college here, and my parents just moved back here this summer.
