Default AAL's in aftermarket leaf packs.

I was just wondering if its possible and anyone's ever put Add-a-Leafs in aftermarket rear springs. I currently have a 3in rough country full leaf pack but im looking to get another 1.5-2 inches of lift, but I dont want to buy a whole new leaf pack. Would I just be able to put like a aal out of a 4.5 inch lift in it and maybe get like a 5in total?

Sure it's possible if you know what you're doing. Don't think you'd get that much though.

with my AAL i had i got about 2.5" of lift out of it and since you have new spring packs and not ones that are sagging then the aal should last some time if you want to pick up some good and cheap pro comp one's here is a great link and great price on them.
