    Even if I was wrong on calculating which I know I'm not, the one inch block shouldn't made my truck have a noticeable slant. Remember, before the block, with just the AAL the truck was sitting at .5 inch lower from center hub measurement at the rear. Now do you think if I've measured it wrong, would that one inch cause the truck to have that noticeable of slant?

    Looks good. Sorry OP, you messed up in your before and after hub to fender measurements.

    I was right below 23inch with AAL from center hub to fender. Now I'm sitting a little above 25. Wish I have a pix before adding the block. 20170507_223926.jpg

    Did you drive the truck after you installed the blocks to allow the suspension to settle?

    If I did, why would a inch make the truck slanted so bad that I can tell it from a distance? Do you think an additional inch will make it look that bad? Remember, before the block I was sitting .5 inch lower from the rear. Truck sits pretty leveled before. I don't think a inch will make it that much of slant.. :)

    Good question, yes! Although had only been two days since block is installed. I don't think it need more days for a block to settle.. lol

    I thought maybe the suspension either wasn't settled or the blocks were 2" blocks but I was wrong and it turns out those are just magic blocks.

    No idea why you got those numbers. Install looks fine tho. I am not a fan of stacking lifts, but a 1" block isn't bad.

    I have 885s and 5100s with Icon AALs in the rear. My rear sits .25" higher than the front. Removed the helper spring at setup of AALs.

    What brand AALs are in there? Something doesn't sound right....
