    Here's a better view of my back wheel after the dakars were installed! Does it look like I need a axle relocation plate to y'all?

    Do you wheel the truck? If not I wouldn't worry about it. If you do, sure why not? It won't hurt anything to install some. I don't have any in mine. My axle didn't appear to move forward like others have shown with the dakars.

    Don't wheel hard but I will wheel some! I'm putting 285/70 17 toyo mt's on next week so they will fill the wheel well up more! I'm just wanting to do it right....so therefore if I need the relocation plates I'm going to get them

    Based on the couple of pics you've posted, it looks like the wheel need to move back 3/4"-1" maybe. I think this is common with Dakars but I am only relating what I have read. Not all spring packs do this.

    It becomes a bigger issue when you run larger tires and then try to stuff them. These are 33"s.

    I guess I will go ahead and install the relocation plate! What's the best one out there on the market?

    You can probably get them from a lot of places. "Best" is difficult to define with something so simple. If I was doing it, I would look for a set that moves the axle the correct amount.

    I think ill go ahead and order a set of these! 3/4" or 1" should be close enough to center!

    I was worried I'd need relocation plates and shims, but somehow the expo leafs lined everything up great.

    Just purchased 5100's and OME 881's. Can someone tell me if I have a AAL from this picture? I definitely have something, but not familiar enough with the setup to know for sure.

    I believe the leaf directly above the overload leaf is a additional leaf.

    Thank You cdj1 and 95 taco. Guy I purchased the truck from put this lift on. AAL in the back and a spacer on the front with the stock shocks. Replaced the rear shocks today and hope to get the front done this weekend.
