Alabama thread!

stronger grade doesn't mean they have to be torqued harder, but means they can be.

 

potentially the AAL to the dakar pack for the rear? depending on intended weight you'll carry

 

You can always order it later but that means tearing them down and off the truck an additional time. Would definitely make your ass end sit high with no weight, but the dakars without aal and no weight will do that too lol

 

The HD Dakar pack has an extra leaf in it

 

Does it? So how many are total? I have 8 with my AAL in mine.

 

correct.

 

I am honestly not sure how many leaves there are total in the HD pack. I just know it is the medium pack with the AAL installed. Most recommend buying the medium pack and taking one of the leaves out until you need it because it is cheaper than buying the AAL down the road.

 

Gotcha. Mine is not the HD pack as far as I know. I have the AAL...part number is in my post earlier..

 

Jk no it's not. I'd have to find it online

 

El095 is standard (medium)

EL096 is HD

Those are the “new” part numbers

 

And squeak to high heaven the whole time

 

True, but id rather torque them to what i think is proper than have my reae axle fall off.

 

My dobs dont squeak unless i forget to grease the bushings.

Edit i have greasable bushing bolts from doninsons

 

My dakars dont squeak

 

Your the exception lol.

 

X2. No squeak whatsoever. They did for a little bit but stopped. Maybe 2 weeks one time.

 

same, they did in the beginning then it went away

 

Would definitely be a one off, but could make it work.

 

Most likely. Lol. We’ll get it figured out.

 

Would it even be possible? Seems like you can’t add a gusset to the brace without getting in the way of box.

@InfernoChalupa show a pic of the box pivoted out to the tailgate
