    Regardless of what the website says, people have been reporting 4-6" of rear lift with them. I'd only run them if I had 400-600 lbs in the bed 24/7

    I got 4" out of the expos. And with the shell and rear bumper (maybe 300lb) it did not affect it.

    If the block has the alignment hole in it you can, but it isn't recommended but if you look at a lot of big lift trucks they are stacking blocks. The biggest issue is the block coming out of alignment and falling out

    Easy fix! Just stack two fat chicks in the bed of the truck. Now leveled!

    Do you know how much money you'd spend in the drive through to keep them happy?! It'd be cheaper to just buy the truck parts and pay someone to install them!

    I only recommend getting the expos if you are always carrying a lot of weight. As far as choosing between Dakars and the regular allpro springs I have no personal experience with either of them. I know a few guys in town have Dakars and they like them.

    I am always carrying a lot of gear in my bed so the expos are working good for me. The guy I bought them from never carried anything in his bed and he sold them because they were too harsh.

    Makes sense. I really don't need them for the extra load capacity then. I will search a little about both and decide. Will the regular all pros give me about 3" or more?
