    I did the bilstein/ ome lift and added Icon aal in rear. I have about 3” lift in front and 1 1/2” - 2”” rear lift. I’d like to get another 1” lift in rear. Is there a single leaf that would fit with the current AAL / stock leafs I have? I think the center pin is topped out and would need replacement. Also, what are the dangers of adding 1” block to rear leafs if I went that route?

    None that I’m aware of. Your options are most likely a block or a new leaf pack.

    you’ll likely get some driveline vibes by adding another 1” to the rear, but there are ways to remedy that too... CB drop or replace the driveshaft to a single piece.

    Did you leave overload in?

    you really can't leave the old overload in with the Icon AAL, it replaces the existing overload

    That’s not what I’ve read around this forum but ok.

    I’m referring to the progressive 3 leaf aal kit from icon. Do you just have a single AAL?

    I have the 1 1/2 in lift leaf springs...there are 3. I think the brackets from the overload lined up with the brackets of the AAL. I could've grinded them off but the instructions said to remove the overload so that's what i did

    I can't speak of the progressives, but I did a single aal, left the overload in to give me the extra lift that you speak of.

    You have to do a bit of modification to make them fit but it is doable and gives you around a 1/2” extra lift.

    unfortunately I trashed them right after the install. This was back in springtime. I was happy when i first did the lift because new wheels and lift looked great. I now want factory rake vs the level look...just my personal preference.
