    i'll be changing my oem front bumpers to ARB Sahara this week, since mas mabigat ng di hamak yung ARB, baka medyo bumagsak yung harapan. ok lang ba na lagyan ng spacers para magpantay yung height ng front sa back, or dapat palitan yung coil springs?

    If you like the way your springs ride, ok na siguro ang spacers just to compensate.

    try to measure first the stock height before installing the bumper. then after installing and see the difference. also try to see if it affects the bounce of the springs and if the shocks can still hold the weight. then you can decide from there. OME has packers for this 10mm and spacer 15mm. text me if i could be of help.

    actually, hindi naman ata sobrang bigat ng ARB bumpers, kaya kong buhatin magisa yung bumper. pero yung oem bumpers 2/3 plastic kasi.

    how will i know if the shocks can hold the weight?

    bilsteins na shocks ko, kaya na ba nito? how much ba 10mm spacers? medyo mas mataas na kasi rear ko compared to front, nagpalit kasi ako ng rear coils to TJM. yung front ko oem pa rin.

    will confirm regards sa installation. but most of the bumpers by ARB uses the stock holes for mounting.

    Ang trim packer ginagamit pag pantay ng uneven lift ng springs. Sometimes this can also be used as a spacer in increments of 10mm. Usually placed below the coils. A word from RATS that max trim packer should be only 20mm (2 trim packers on top of one another).

    Ang 15mm/30mm spacers naman ay nagdadagdag ng lift sa coils. Ito ay kadalasan nasa ibabaw ng springs kinakabit.

    boybi::: Yung red na nakita mo 15mm rear coil spacer. Napalitan ko na yun, ginawa ko ng blue which is 30mm rear coil spacer. Kung nakita mo yung yellow na manipis ko dati, yun ang trim packer.
