    I have the Toytec aal and honestly they suck. They make the ride really stiff. I will be changing out the entire leaf pack soon.

    You get what you pay for really $80 bucks is a really cheap way to lift the rear.

    I have the same AAl's. Deaver makes them. My truck empty sits high in the rear with 3" of lift, but I like it that way since Its usually loaded. I like the way it rides, not too stiff at all.

    ^Comes with them. You can see I still havent cut mine off yet so they are plenty long enough you can leave the stock overload in if you want and gain at least another 1/2" and still keep a high payload capacity. Mine lost a little without the leaf but I dont carry much anyway
