[QUOTE="machoheadgames, post: 435982, member: 18789"] It’s been a while since I measured my OMEs but they are around 4.25” off the top of my head, so like 1/8” lift. I will say I don’t notice anything from those. I did have some 3/8” lift shackles from MORE and 1/2” lift from RE (so 4.75” and 5” respectively) and I did not care for either. Both made the steering on mine feel pretty loose. I was mostly trying to advise against the 1.25” lift boomerangs the OP mentioned which would be a 6.50” shackle. Those will for sure handle poorly. Although I guess that is in the eye of the beholder. The good news I suppose is shackles are cheap and easy to change either way so it’s not like you’re missing a ton of money or out a bunch of labor if you put some on you don’t like. Can always easily revert back. [/QUOTE]
