    Hmm... Wonder. So wouldn't it just be stiffer leafs, rougher ride when unloaded, and more resistance to sagging?

    Don't be scared. Go with Wheelers. They put together the right shit for you. If I were you I'd also buy a set of UCA's from them. I got the Total Chaos ones.

    I prefer the Dakar leaf pack because it's a complete solution. I don't want to disassemble my leaf pack for my kit. I'd screw it up somehow.

    The Icon 3 leaf progressive AAL is another option that rides really well.

    I saw Icons on Wheelers offroad but I noticed it was about 60 bucks more. Wonder why?

    Exactly what I was trying to say. I just brought up the Icons on front to let the OP know my buddy wasn't running a shitty lift in the front.

    Got it. I will probably get the 3 leaf next summer internship I land. Currently using hand-me-down leaf pack and AAL.

    This is the best shot of them I could get. They don't look flat to me but there not a huge arch either. What I can tell you is that my wheel gap hasn't changed since I bought the truck except for tire wear.

    2885 are the 885x. If you look at the box when you buy them the part number is 2885 not 885x.

    All Pro Standards, 2.5-3" lift (rated for 3"), Not TOO stiff but stiffer than factory. DON'T get the EXPOs unless you carry a ton of weight in the back.
