looks pretty solid upfront, but you will regret having AAL's i did and i've only had the lift for 2-3 months. so i bought 1.5" Teraflex shackles, now my back sits about .25-.5" above the front. depending on how much lift the AAL is suppose to give you in that kit, your back might be sagging with no way to add shackles (since they are already in the kit as part of the 4.5")

Do they make a full pack to lift the rear 4.5 inches? If they do i will buy that kit and then just buy a full leaf pack for the rear from a differnt company. Thats what my dad did with his blazer becuase they gave him 4 inch blocks and he didnt like how it was sagging in the rear so he just bought a full pack.

RC has a 4.5" rear full pack kit, im not sure how much, but they are pretty good, and usually well priced.
