I have a 2000 gmc jimmy that is lifted between 2"-3" it's just a shackle and torsion key lift and the rear is starting to sag I was wondering if I could get an xj aal and install it in my leafs to level it back up and what size aal to get. I've been researching them and it seems s10 aal are double the price of xj aal thanks for the help

S10's are spring under, which will have much more arch. The xj is spring over, which will be much flatter. An xj AAL will be much shorter as well. Just go get some junk yard s10 leafs and make a bastard pack out of them. That should firm the pack up a bit and stop the sag.
