Hey all.
I have an xterra, but i realize that Im likely to get a wider sampling group by asking this crowd.
Has anyone started with a basic lift kit (ie OME) and gone to something with a remote reservoir set up? If so, how tangible were the differences? Was it worth the extra cost?
The way I'm looking at it now, the OME kit for my truck is a nice, basic, complete package. There is enough lift for some extra ground clearance and fitting my desired tire size will be no problem. It will likely support the load I carry, although is slightly under spec for some of my trips. The alternative is to spend a little over 2x as much and go with custom rear leaf packs and a full on remote reservoir suspension. Advantages would be a little more lift, more wheel travel, and the remote resi's.
I can afford to buy either one, but I'm not big on buying stuff I don't need just for the sake of having it...so that leads me to the question of: "is it worth it?" and Im curious on people's opinions, ESPECIALLY if you started with a basic spring/shock combo and later changed it out for a "gucci" kind of kit.
Thanks all.
