    Any chance you could post a center of hub to fender measurement for the front wheels?

    Looks awesome! Hows the ride so far? How much higher does your rear sit than your front?

    It's way better than the clapped out stock springs and el cheapo shocks, but without any weight over the rear end it's harsh and bouncy.

    My fenders sat around 37" from the ground front and back before, now I'm at 39" up front and 42.5" out back. So roughly 2" gained up front and 5+" out back! :eek: I need to get the shell back on get working on my camping platform to help it level out a bit. If I add any weight up front, I think I'll have to swap coils.

    I'm curious on who all has added the AAl after several years. I have about 60k miles on my current leaf pack and was curious on adding the extra leaf. I carry small tool box with a jack, straps, various tools and a large cooler. Would I see any benefit to add in the extra leaf.

    Good question. I'm curious to hear about this as well, since I now have a topper and am looking to add a modular storage/sleeping platform setup eventually.

    Sorry for the late reply!

    Before:
    FD: ~20.5"
    FP: ~20.75"

    After:
    FD: ~24.25"
    FP: ~24.25"

    I don't have but 100mi or so on them so I am expecting to come down a little bit after breaking them in.

    881's in the front for sure. What kinda driving you do with the truck? There are a couple options for the leafs depending on application
