    Get the AAL Wheelers makes for the leaf pack. Popped mine right up.

    They are 5 packs..therefore 1.5'' lift. 4 packs are stock.

    as in stock shocks? No.

    5100s? yes, OME883s coils will and are now recommended over 882s.

    Stock 2nd gen coils..no. Don't bother. Just get all new coils.

    camper shell is a good 200lbs....that can for sure cause a decent amount of sag.

    Like monte said, add a wheelers 1.5 AAL, that what I am going to do to get a bit more lift/load resistance.

    depends on what you are going to do. If you are going to be hauling a lot, or having a lot of gear in your bed...then the dakars are for you.

    I have the wheelers 5 pack, and it rides great...but I rarely haul anything in my bed other than a dirtbike once in a while.

    Well during the summer i do pull a boat every weekend. But it doesn't make my stock crappy leafs sag hardly at all. I've just seen some people say they haven't gotten the amount of lift they wanted out of the wheelers

    I am not sure exactly how much lift I got from my 5 pack, because I have shackles too...but I will be adding a 1.5'' AAL to get more lift, and I am getting rid of the shackles.
