I got cheated too, damn thing in a near new set of leafs gave me an inch more than it was supposed to. Now I just need to find out who to e-mail about this problem to have it corrected as soon as possible. Seriously though I wish it was a bit softer but its not a dump truck by any means.

I love seeing people that spent the money on full packs and 6 months down the road are already having problems with them. Makes me smile inside.

Somethings work great for some, and ****ty for others. Just the way the rock rumbles.

My OME full leaf packs (with their AAL) lasted & worked great for about 6 years (I just checked) and when the ol' XJ got above 4800# I decided they couldn't handle it anymore (Or I just needed an excuse for new springs

). Sold them & now the new owner's XJ sits tall & proud whereas mine had squatted. The point is that sometimes the weight of the rig has something to do with how your springs perform. As of course does the quality of the spring pack. You get what you pay for.
I'll still maintain that the average AAL is garbage and won't last. YMMV.
