    I am going to get bilstein 5100 shocks and I'm probably going to set them on the second setting. I was also looking at the toytec 2" AAL, and thats what I'm unsure about. My rear leaves are sagging and I have a little less tire-fender clearence in the rear than the front. So would the 2" actually be around 1.5 or something?

    I also have a camper shell currently on the truck.

    Yep it depends on how bad your stock leafs are. I'd say do the 2" and if the rear is a bit high then you have a stock look of front lower and rear rake. If it bugs you then set the 5100's at the top and see if it'll level. I bet if your springs are shot the 2" may get it back to stock height maybe a tad higher but not by much. But like states it varies from truck to truck.
