    thanks! And thanks for answering some of my questions. Appreciate it! It’s only been a couple of days, but I think you’re right in the money. It’s a quality lift that doesn’t break the bank.

    If you ever decide you need the overload, that is a really easy job.

    I just installed mine today. 2017 Dcsb sport. I went 1.1 with a 1”block in the back. Although it looks lifted I don’t feel it looks much higher than stock. Drivers side front with the lean only netted me about 3/4”. I’ll probably go to the 4th notch at some point. I will say that the ride is great.

    I used a 1/4" spacer and that did the trick. I thought about the blocks, but everyone really recommend the AAl or a new pack in the back.

    I’ll probably replace the blocks with an AAL. I wasn’t sure if I would need to lift the rear. You can also place the drivers side one notch higher to compensate for the lean. Didn’t realize that until after I installed them.
