    No clue...So on top of the 927/948 springs what do you think I should do? Both clevis and top plate? Or just one or the other? Again, I have no idea what is best. I assume this is what I want for Clevis. I want a .25 spacer right? Something about too much stress on ball joints after that...

    Alright, if you guys say thats the best instructional around I believe it. Just to confirm, the Frankenlift is just a taller lift and the process is the exact same with my 2.5inch OME lift, correct?

    BTW, I emailed a well reviewed local 4x4 shop to see how much they would charge to install the OME lift kit. Their response was "est $5-600 plus alignment we send out $ 80" Sound about right?

    Am I just screwed regarding the TPMS? Ive looked at a few wheels so far and they all say incompatible. My TPMS is already screwball so maybe I should just accept the random notification light from it and deal with it.
