Flex with AAL

Hi all quick question.

I just popped a 2in AAL in on my 3+1 leaf pack on my dcsb trd off road 4x4. Paired with OME N182 shocks, it rides great.

I did notice however that when full flex (like lifting a rear tire) that the stuffed side is still about 1.5in away from hitting the bump stop. Do others with AAL's have this issue?

 

If you're still 1.5" away from the bump stop, then you aren't fully flexed. The AAL basically helps the leaf pack so it will take more to fully stuff the tire and make the truck sit on the bumps.

 

yes thats obvious. I am wondering if others are seeing the inability to go to full stuff on the bump while running a 2in AAL. The spring at the point where i lift the tire stiffens up to the point where it doesn flex. If i add weight to the back it gets closer to the bump on full flex.

 

let the AAL break in for a couple months, then check again.

 

thats what i figured. I love the new stance of the rear. Now to do the front!
