Hi !from a canadian newbe aaayy. ;)
I have a calmini 3 in susp for a few years now on my 4 door no bodylift,since day one,the shocks made a cracking sound,wich I
did get used to.combined with poor springs (severe sagg).got worse when i installed calmini front winch bumper and a 8500lbs
superwinch.well I've installed ome struts with ome 962 coils,2 inch spacers,removed the calmini strut spacers and did the upper
mount flip,let me tell you that the ride quality is TO DIE FOR.wow,I now have a completely different truck,fabbed up my own
rock slidders and belly pan,alot of extra weight very well handled by the ome springs,just my 2 cents.
93 4door sidekick,5spd,3in calmini,ome frt coils with 2in spacers,calmini winch bumper,8500 superwinch,calmini front skid,custom rock slidders,custom belly pan,frt ome shocks with upper mount flip,4.24 t-case gears,truck painted camo,hence my user name.I have rear ARB,calmini header exh. combo to be installed soon.FOUR DOORS KICKASS
