WHO has the best lift kit for my 92 tacker. I want to put 32" tires with 2.5 back spacering and would also like a 3" body and 3" suspension lift. Who is better OME or CALMINI Or Zuk nation.

I have a 91 kick with 32's and 2.5 back spaced wheels, with a 3" body lift and a modified 3" calmini lift. The calmini lift is a really nice kit, but the front springs and struts are shit!. Replace the struts with some OME ones and get some different front springs in there.

"Yes". Calmini is it for the $ ! And "Yes" on loosing the struts (poor at best). OME is really your best choice, more travel too! As for the springs up front (too soft) for me. The Calmini springs work well for slow crawing & climbing but not the best for any kind of speed. They loose alot after a good day off roading. You will find your veh. sitting lower in the front , more body roll on turns & nose dives on hard braking. I couldn't find a replacement spring so I installed 1"shims on top of the springs, and prior to bolting in the OME struts install the bumps. Sold by DayStar. This is a workable front end. Note the black bumps in the picture & drop out the longer OME struts allow.

Did you leave the strut extension in as I see blue on top of the strut? Have you noticed if the bumps are helping out are they more for insurance on the front end? What shocks are you running in the rear and do you have the daystar bumps on those? The rear of my '92 4dr has coil bind and Calmini stated I should try a gas shock. I figure with the bumps as well it should help me out until I can findd better springs for the cal 3" susp lift. Too bad OME doesn't have 3" inch springs

support zukination! canadian company..... plus i'm waiting for them to develop their 2nd gen 4inch lift....

thanks guys for all your input. I'm going with the calmini stuff. i found a dealer here in ontario and the 6" combo kit is 1200 bucks more than half the price of zuk nation. I would love to support canadian companys but they do not have any dealers out here and shipping is just an added cost to there allready over priced kit. Also i havn't heard of anyone who has their kit nor have i seen any pics of trucks with their kit. I have requested from them some photos and shipping costs and have yet to recieve any. So my calmini kit comes next week deliverd to my door for 1200 Can't beat that!
