    Funny... I got a DC LB 1.75 front 2" aal rear, and am a Neil as well...

    Am thinking about doing OME 884's in the front, but don't want to be nose-high when a small load is in the rear...

    Your leer shell probably weighs a bit less than my snugtop as you look like you have a bit more rake than I do now...

    Hence the post....

    haha... that is funny...

    The only thing I dont like is that anytime I tow (a lot) or put weight in the bed, I'm riding high in the front. I wish my rear suspension was a little more stiff.

    Just took some measurements... About 1" difference between front and rear. The billy's at 0 and the OME 884s would make the truck a bit more level, but with a load, I would be nose high...

    Leaf packs shipped to Hawaii are outrageous. What's my other options for the rear if I want the front between 2-2.25"?

    Thought about the timbrens, but even those don't contact till 1". The average weekend bed load is give or take 200lbs. Guess I throw some weights in the back and measure again.... If I sag 1/2", should be good to go... More than that and either no more lift for me, or start saving for a leaf pack....

    Hey check my sig. that is bone stock before the tsb was done and the leer cap is on. still had lots of rake for towing.NOT THIS SIG

    Hey just checked your pics gallery and the shot of the rear pack looked like a leaf was missing and some blocks where installed underneath?? Is that right. This is a pic of mine stock. Hope this helps.

    The pic in my gallery was with my non-tsb leaf pack with a 1.5" block. That setup lasted all of 2 weeks. Changed my mind real fast and changed it out for a 2" toytec aal...
