When you say OME springs what exactly are you talking about. What did you order and from where. Toyota only sells individual springs not a complete spring pack.

Hi Linda, yes CTgriffi you are correct.

Based off these forums I got two ARB/OME CSCS010R and the matching ARB bushings from CarID because DesertRat and 4wheel didn't have them in stock. I got the shackles from Toyota Parts Deals like you have linked a lot to before Linda.

You are right I haven't posted much since joining, have had a lot of family medical issues during this summer so I have just been reading and learning from you all. Thanks for all the great information Linda and everybody else.

I will try posting more and ask questions.

I am redoing my entire suspension as we speak, I got OME springs and bushings, KYB shocks, replacement shackles and pins, and  just ordered my replacement airbags from 3t this week. Once I get the bags I will be dropping it off at a truck suspension repair place, they do lifted pickups and big rigs, because they have a garage lift and roof tall enough to get it up in the air and remove the rusty shackles etc. I will let you know how it goes and if anything I got didn't fit.

Congrats on the buy, I have an 86 Escaper that I bought in June for less but needed a ton of work because of water damage from the roof AC added on. I don't see many Escapers so we will have to connect. These forums are great and I have been learning a ton.
