| Post subject: | Tough Dog vs. Old Man Emu |
Just wondering which might be the better option. I currently have a 40mm Tough Dog setup on my 09 Sierra (sounds better than Jimny), but I am going up to 80mm and was wondering which setup is actually better. I cannot fault Tough Dog, but I hear nothing but good things from Old Man Emu. Anything with some experience? I keep putting off buying extended diff breathers - can anyone recommend someone that I can purchase a kit from? I know they can be made, but I would rather fork out the $$$ for a professional job. Thanks! |

OME are generally better quality, but TD seem OK for the price... |

ome only do a 40 mm lift for the jimny. so its either new toughdog springs or spacers on the springs you have now. ul also need longer shocks and preferably adjustable panhard rods. |

Pirahna definitely do a kit - is it model specific though or just the one that I see on their website? Thanks guys - I have seen OME 80mm lifts on a few "older" Jimnys, but not sure about 09 model... |
