I am needing some information from anyone who is running the OME suspension lift. I am only looking for about 1.5" of lift and this looks like a quality setup. It also offers medium and heavy duty options, which is great for the CRD. Information on medium vs. heavy duty would be helpful. I am currently running stock, but might add some type of brush guard in the future. I will also be towing trailers ranging from 2000-4000 lbs. periodically. Any input on wheel/tire limitations with a 1.5" lift would be great as well.

I think 2-3 folks have tried the current OME springs and have been disappointed - the springs aren't stiff enough, they droop down to less than an 1 of lift

That should soon change - Heather posted that All-J's has some new OME CRD springs

The spring rate people have been quoting - stock 410 lbs/ in - OME regular heavy duty - 400 lbs/in - new OME CRD's 500 lb's/in

That should be heavy enough for CRD + ARB + winch - in between - OzLtd had some custom King springs made at about 465 lb's/in - but there's no US dealer so shipping is as much as the springs.

Thanks for the information. The ARB-USA website shows that they have springs that will work for a stock CRD (OME 926) or with up to 110 lbs. of extra weight on the front (OME 927). However, I questioned this as no one has listed this option on the CRD specific lifts posting, and I had not been able to find anyone who was running this lift. Thanks again.

That specification is for the 2.5L CRD that's been everywhere but the USA for several years.

I thought that must be the case, but had originally thought that it would pertain to the US vehicle since it was the US website. Sounds like I just need to wait a little while until the new 500# springs are available.
