you'll be fine for DD. I'm running the same setup with only difference of the ax15 vs np3550, when I installed my RE3.5" leafs and used the 1.5" hole on my drop shackles, I was about 6" in rear. I hope it's settled some but I haven't had any prob with the DS yet. Only offroad it's seen was the farm last weekend and i didn't do anything crazy cuz I had to make the three hour trip home later that day!
