    I'm ready to install my 2" AALs from Wheelers and I did email Johnny over there, but I don't think I'll get a response in time before tomorrow's install. My question is...is there any right or wrong direction in which to install the leafs? They look pretty symmetrical.

    Thanks.

    If one end is longer, that end goes toward the back.

    X2. With the Toytec AAL, one end is ever so slightly longer than the other. It may take a couple of minutes of staring and measuring to figure out which one though.
