Old Man EMU

[puda]

I have a “+” on the drivers side and a “o” on the passenger side, and my truck is perfectly level on the rear. I did not install the shim that was on the drivers side in the original leaf setup.

Thanks, that's good to know at least! Have you had any vibration issues?

Correct, to my understanding the BP51 shock kit is still under development at this time. When I was on the Stage 3 site last night i noticed two different kits available ang it came down to if you had a heavy bumper with winch or not and it was still the same price. Kits come with all 4 struts/shocks new coil springs and new leafs.

I am actually looking to overlanding with my Ranger and I am hoping the OME would be a better choice over the Fox kit since the OME lifts the.rear about 1.5 with a front lift of about 2.35 vs Fox only lifts the front up too 3.

i am looking to buy the ome medium load rear leaf springs 1.5" lift. will these springs correct my 3/4" left rear lean?

Not really. Even with the Old Man EMU suspension I still had the slight lean. It might be annoying to look at but I didnt have any performance issue with it.

Is it recommended to replace UCAs when installing the kit?

Nope, I contacted ARB a while ago when I still had the Ranger and they told me that they did not make a Upper Control Arm for the Ranger because there was no need with or without the lift kit. Mind you i was able to get the truck back into alignment specifications with the lift installed. They also mentioned the Upper Control arms are only needed to get the alignment back into specifications.
