For the money the AAL is good. I got my 3in Full packs outa the junk yard for 50 bucks. The AAL is going to sag over some time. With the leafs already stressed from the block lift its only going to make the sag worse. My block lift killed my leafs.

No... add a leaf will not undo the wear and tear that is already on your current leafs.

Unless you have brand new stock height leafs, I wouldn't do an AAL
