    I did the install without any air tools, and you can rent spring compressors/tie rod pullers at your local advance auto parts (at least here you can)

    Also I found out that I failed for the frame recall and so I will be getting the TSB leaf pack with 4 leafs. In other words I will only need a 1.5 inch AAL in order to level out???

    My $.02 / experience -

    I went with 887s and a top plate spacer because I have an aluminum front bumper and M8000s (synthetic line), so about 85 additional pounds over stock - way less than ARB/other steel or heavier winch setups. This gave me almost exactly 3 inches lift over stock and it rides great. I'm also running LR UCAs which help in extreme flex situations - no UCA/Spring "clunk"

    I'm running 32" tires on TRD rims (stock backspacing) but have plenty of room. If I wanted to run a taller tire I *might* need a cab mount chop.

    I went with Dakars in the back and I'm glad I did. AALs give inconsistent results in my experience.

    Dang nice you still got 3" with 85 lbs up front? How much lift did you do in the back to get it level or is your truck even level? Do you have any pics by chance?

    It now rides sooooo much better than stock coil on 3rd notch preloaded to 1.75" and sets dead level.
