    I have the same set up on the third notch. Wheelers 3 leaf AAL in the rear. I run TRD Pro wheels with 265/70/17 Cooper ST/Maxx and have the stock UCA's and my alignment is within specs, no problem.

    If I go to the 4th notch, I think I may get SPC UCA's to help the alignment. Since the 6112 isn't really a long travel shock, I'm not quite sure if upgrading to something like TC's UCA is going to really be worth it. These shocks aren't really big on travel. They seem to be designed for very mild lift and a focus on increased performance on mild off. I travel a lot of unpaved forest and county roads, BLM, stuff like that and these shocks seem totally at home in that environment.

    See these two threads for some more info. Ask @YotaDan for more details..

    Anyone able to recommend a front leveling kit 2" maybe 2.5"?? Don't want anything crazy just a good quality product with a reasonable budget.

    Hey, what is everyone doing with their old suspensions? I feel like no one would buy it but at the same time I feel weird throwing it out. Thanks!

    I've got a 2" front spacer to level out and it sits a little nose high. 2.5 would really sit nose high. It has that bro lean everyone says. You might want to measure your front and rear and get the spacer closest to the difference.

    I like it a lot. It was really easy to install. Just had to cut the rear containment brackets on the OEM leaf springs. Definitely got 2 inches with the overload leaf. I think it rides firmer than before.

    Interesting I did not have to cut anything. I have an OR though. Maybe there's a difference.

    Are those 285/70/17? In the top picture they almost look like 305...maybe it's just the angle of the pic that makes them look wider.

    Looks great though!
