Got one of the first Old Man Emu (OME) kits with Upper Control Arms. Suspension height is set to 3" in the front and 2" in the rear (only coils available right now).
Went with Icon Rebound Double Blacks 17x8.5 +25 offset wheels and some Nitto Trail Grappler 285/75/17 and finally a Westcott Low...
I did the 2135k. The ride is very smooth compared to the factory suspension. It is the 3 front- 2 rear kit with the upper control arms. Rebound is nice and smooth. No rapid rebound that gives a bumpy ride. I’ll report on the off road capabilities once I’m back in town in a few weeks.
The Ridge Grapplers are load C and the suspension is not as harsh as the stock Bilsteins. The OME heavier rear coils are still in development . They suggest an airbag system if only needing a little more support occasionally. Unloaded with the heavier springs would be a more harsh ride.
