I know I'm surprised how good it looks with stock rims/tire. I don't have any drive line vibrations ( maybe due to the spacer on my transfer case)? I did add a leaf and it was kinda a *****. I would recommend just buying brand new pack. I kind regret not doing it. It surprising rides pretty smooth. I have an appt. Monday to get it alignment

Learn how to align it yourself. It's not hard at all, you can do it perfectly in 10 minutes with a tape measure and 2 crescent wrenches. It saves hella $$ and you can align it better yourself than a machine set to factory setup.
