OME Springs to replace budget lift

[Spenser]

Having some issues with the spring lift that I installed on my Commander. Specifically, the truck isnt as "stable" in the passenger compartment, and feels kind of "whippy" at highway speeds. I have put more air in the tires, thinking that was part of it but now suspect that it is spring lift using the factory springs. I have the HD shocks, and it was fine until the lift. So, I remember reading thread either here or EE where folks had removed the spring lift and replaced with the OME or similar springs. Curious as to whether that solved the problem and helped with handling issues? I know what it will improve the carry capacity. Thanks for any experience or input before I either pull the lift and go back to stock or replace with OME.

Since you are higher in the air a stronger rear sway bar may be of benefit.

I don't own a commander, but I had the same experience with my XJ. Budget boost and pulling a small trailer didn't feel safe. Put in an HD OME lift and it is perfect.

OMEs will make a huge difference go for it!

Thank you all, will order the OME's and report back. ARB indicated this afternoon that the heavy duty springs made for the GC will fit in the Commander. Hope it fixes the problem

OME is a solid product and you can't go wrong with that suspension!

agree and my next rig will be changed over the day I buy it instead of waiting 20,000 miles ;)

well, suffice to say, I learned a good lesson here in that I should have just done the OME springs the first time around. Looking forward to the expected change.
