    Arrow The same lift question 1 last time?

    My browser is open to RR Outfitters and my fingers are poised over the purchase button. OK, lifted VX owners, Which ones do I want, OME 912's or 913's? Based on the latest post (and thanks, by the way) from phot2gr4, I'm leaning towards the 913's. Should I? Why or why not? Thanks in advance! Orlan

    JHarris1385: Your gallery is AWESOME! I guess what I'm asking is what are the ride and handling characteristics of the 912's vs the 913's. My VX is a daily commuter of about 100 miles with the occasional off road forray. I wanna keep the interstate capabilities while increasing clearance and general off road worthiness. Whatdya think?

    Honestly it did not lose as much manuverability as I thought it would. The one road charateristics of both springs are similar in fact there is hardly any difference at all. Take note that the prings were not on the vx when I had the 20'' chrome rims on. The springs will stiffen the ride in the back and make it not bounce just as much in my opinion. Are you going to get larger tires or stay stock?

    I have your size tires and I used the 912's - I am happy with them - I used some lowered poly bump stops to compensate for body roll and to keep the future 33's from rubbing off anymore plastic. The poly bumpstops react strangley to big bumps but I have fun with it. I can still scream around corners considering I have a lifted rig!
