    Regarding the wheelers 1.5” single aal- I searched and found guys who leave em in and some take em out.

    For those that kept it in did u get the 1.5” in the rear or was it higher?

    many one leave it out how high was the lift?

    thx

    I’ve done both. Ride fine with them in, and was even better with them out. Both improvements over stock. I added mine back in after adding a bit more lift up front. If you need the extra lift keep them in.

    Sorry to revive such an old thread but I bought a lift kit last month and I’m now waiting on the front coilovers so I can install everything


    I got:
    Bilstein 6112 front coilovers
    Bilstein 5160 rear shocks with resis
    Wheelers 1.5 single AAL
    Wheelers Superbumps


    I’m looking to set the front coilover to 2” of lift and install the rear AAL without the overload leaf in. I do have a PreRunner DCSB and after all my lifts, non have settled more than 1/4 inch since I don’t have any added weight in the front. How much lift have you gotten from the rear AAL without the overload?

    Rear measurement from center hub to fender was 23", which I believe was close to 1.5" over stock without the overload. Keep in mind this was on a new truck with fresh 3+1 factory rear leafs. Your milage may vary on a well used set of springs, especially the TSB 2+1 units which should be replaced to avoid the fuel tank puncture.
