    You'll find everyone on here likes the Bilstein 5100's for leveling the truck (myself included). I just had them put on my regular cab last week and it looks great.

    Just don't overdo it and get a "bro lean" OK? If you're not doing anything to the back, go 0.85 in the front.

    My two cents.

    Is AAL 1.50 at that number because replacing the rear at max 1" with the Billy's makes the 2.50" when AAL?

    Thanks. I also was reading part of another thread talking about replacing the entire leaf spring pack instead of AAL because its a more reliable option. Obviously a more expensive option. What do you guys think?
