So I am looking for more lift in the front after almost a year with my OME stuff installed. This time I'm going to go with the the OME927 springs and I was wondering if it would be better to replace the stock top plates with Daystars or add a set of Boilers'shims to the stock top plates to get more height. Whaddya think? Thanks everybody.... -Tony aka MojaveKJ |

I use Boiler-type shims and have zero issues. The daystars tops have been talked about alot. They have been blamed for anything from possibly cutting a strut to noise issues. I know at least one person who did away with the frankielift & daystar for the shims and is super glad that he did. I donta know anything but that the shims work dandy. |

No use to get the Daystar top plates if you have stock already, if you get them then you have to buy a 3/4 inch isolator as well. Just get some 3/8 inch thick top plates (or make some your self, very easy) and be done I have ran mine with about every combination out there using OME springs. It all works pretty good, never did fiqure out why some don't like the Frankenlift parts , mines doing fine, no noises or problems. Takes some time to seat in good though. |
