    Hmmm...I was hoping the numbers were gonna be a little higher. I got 24" from a 1.5" non tsb AAL and I need a little more so I was thinking of going with the leaf pack.

    You can add an extra leaf (
    $81 d29xl leaf spring
    d29xl) to the Dakars to add 5/8-3/4" more height .

    note: measurements taken while truck was in an uneven parking lot angle down on the passenger side (lot higher on driver side)

    passenger 24"
    driver 25"

    so with the sloped lot skewing my measurements, i'd say i'm around 24 1/2" on dakars from 2006 and close to 70k miles on them

    shackle flip kit (if they can ever get through R&D stage) from ATO should add another inch maybe and would also increase performance

    No , but Defined was going to become a vendor on here , I think there are some guys on TTORA running them .

    Boyd ( Oswego ) let me know about these guys when I was talking to him about greasable shackles

    That thread is probably deleted now

    Pretty sure there's another thread rattling around here somewheres that has this - but maybe that's measured at the front not the back. Anyhow, shortly after installing, I measured heights as follows:

    After installation and one day of driving, center hub to top of front fender is 23" in the front, and 25.5" in the back. It's a quarter inch higher on the driver's side, which is fine by me with the gas tank close to empty and no one sitting in the seat.
