Which OME to use with ARB and winch?

I couldn't find this info on this forum and was wondering if I should use the CRD heavy duty springs(my libby is gas)? ARB is going on right away and then a winch soon after. I might try to put both on at the same time, as that makes more sense. I will also be towing this vehicle, 4 down, quite often.

for this I would probably go CRD
just my .02 worth

i went gas and regret it ... get the 790 (crd) springs..

OK very good. Thanks for your guys input!

I ran an ARB with 927s for 100,000 miles, it did sag about 3/4 of an inch, switched those out for 790s and have 30,000 on them, ride is great and holding up great

Even with only a 75 lb push bar & skids up front, I have lost some height up front pretty quick with the 927's. The ride is fairly soft up front, but that may be due to the valving of the Bilstien's.
I had considered a Warn winch up front, but based on the current springs, I feel that 790's would be a requirement with winch.

With a Backbone winch mount and winch up front, I find the OME H/D springs to be just stiff enough for my liking.
If/when we go for the ambiguous ARB front bumper, I'll be changing over to the CRD OME 790 coil springs.
Maybe next year!
