    Mine doesnt look like it rides high up front. It might when you first do it but give it a week or two to settle and it should be just about perfect.

    Does anyone have a picture of a their truck with 1.75" up front and a 1.5" AAL or block in the rear? A moderate lift yet keeping the same % of factory rake.

    I have all my lift components ready to go and on the fence with the AAL. I am lifting the front 1.6" with eibachs.

    Big tires, big lift, Lots of stuff's.
    How about the 2.5 setting with the TSB AAL from the side so I can check and see if the front sits high or not, because once mine are on they stay on till i go coils.
