    Need some feedback please. This is how my truck sits now, was wondering if should take off 1 1/2" aal and replace with 2" aal.
    What do you all think about the rims also. All feedback good or bad is welcome
    thanks;)

    i think it looks good how it sits, if you do the two inch it might be slightly higher in the back.

    Depends on what look you're going for....

    Do you want the truck to look leveled out, or higher in the rear?

    IMO the additional 1/2" won't really make that much of a difference.

    the rear will sag over time, trust me... go ahead and bump up an extra 1/2 inch now, you'll be glad you did later.
