    Today my Bilsteins and Icon AAL arrived. Tomorrow I plan to have them put on with Hangook Dynapro ATMs. I want to go with the 1.75 setting to avoid UCA's and CV boot issues.


    I have an access cab, and I'm worried that if I leave the overload in, I will have too much rake. Right now, my measurements are F 20 3/16 (20.1825) and R 21 7/16 (21.4375), for a total rake of 1 1/4". If I raise the front by 1.75, and I raise the back by 1.5, this should give me 1" of rake. However, I'm told that leaving the overload in will give an extra 1/2" of lift in the rear? Do the icon AAL's restore the stock arch of the original springs?


    My reasoning is that my measurement as of now includes the overload, and that I should simply add 1.5 to that. Is this incorrect?

    I removed my overload when I installed my Icon AAL. Very happy with the lift and the ride

    OP, when you look at your leafs, are they flat, or are they obviously frowning over the axle?

    Ended up with 1.8" of lift. A hair over 1 3/4. It will settle I'm sure. I'll likely put the overload back in at some point down the road once I notice a bro lean going on. thanks for the replies.
