I have just purchaced:

OME 790 (front springs)
OME 948 (rear springs)
RSX17505 (front strut) still a few of these left at http://www.modernparts.com
RSX17004 (rear shock) still a few of these left at http://www.truckstuffusa.com
Top Strut Plate 3/8" (from Boiler)
Rear Spacer 1.5" (from long_tall_texan instead of Isolators)
Clevis (front DIY)
Rear bumpstops (Daystar)
Teraflex front bumpstops (AllJ products)

So if anyone has this setup let me know what size tire you are running thanks.

I was going to go with the RRO Rockfather until I read everything on many forums.

Thank you to everyone!!!

Sounds pretty good except some say the OME shocks work better than Ranchos for some reasons, I'd say you are fine though
Not sure how high you'll end up with both a top plate and a clevis maybe too much on a CRD

I wont do the clevis at first I will let the springs settle first. But when I put the ARB w/winch on there I will do the clevis.

Thanks for the advice.

Almost the same set up, minus the front top plates, plus ARB front bumper. Currently have 245/75/R16, but did fit 265/75/R16 on Moab rims (less backspace) with out issue.

A 1.5" rear spacer? I missed that one.

The CRD is nose heavy so I don't think you need that....

Like I said in the other thread...this stuff is too much. You'll sit too tall. I'm at 22" in the front with 790s alone. My coils are dangerously close to hitting the arms. If I were you, I'd ditch all the spacers on your list and use ONLY springs. You might need one extra pair of ISOLATORS in the rear to level it out according to some forum members, but I haven't gotten the chance to do my rear coils yet so I can't say for sure.

If you put all that stuff on a CRD you're going to kill your joints.

If your planning on a ARB bumper and a winch in the near future save the spacers, you may need them. You dangle 160+lbs off the front end it tends to sag things a bit. Again, I have a CRD with the arb/winch and I am at 21.5" with spacer plate and 3 ring clevis.
