Leaf Spring Question
Well When i did my lift kit I went with the AAL, Needless to say its sagging hardcore in the rear, I'm looking at buying full new leaf packs, I see rancho has 1.5in lift leafs,
So my question is if i bought the rancho ones, and added the AAL would that give me 4-4.5 in the rear? Thats what im hoping to get

Yee be warned. Most, and by most I mean all, 4.5" leaf packs are too short and give a terrible shackle angle. The combination I posted is your best bet for sitting at 4-4.5", still having a good ride, and being able to articulate the rear.

si! my set ups a 3'' aal H.D. Offroad shackle relocation brakets/ oem shackles(for now) and thats got me at roughly 4'' of lift in the rear. i strongly suggest a less arched spring for ''too short" reason
