    Right now I've go just short of a 3" lift with 2" AAL's and 884 coils up front with top plate spacer. I don't have the original coils. Let's say I wanted to go back to stock height, what should I do? Reccomendations?

    Remove the AAL in the rear and swap coil/strut assemblies with someone who's stock. You'll make some money off the swap and then sell the AAL if it's still decent (or swap leaf packs also).

    Yeah, but what about replacing the coils I already have? Don't I need them?

    ok, sorry for my ignorance. So you're saying a stock truck doesn't come with coils on the front? It's just the shock?

    Do some looking on here for pricing, it sounds like you have a decent set-up there. You should be able to trade someone for their stock parts and make some $$ in the process.

    To be honest, I don't want to go back as of right now. I was just curious in case I ever wanted to.

    people on here sell their stock coilover assembly on occasion. Post up a WTB thread in the for sale section and see if anyone wants to sell you some stock parts, or possibly trade.
