    I am looking at a 2.5-3" coil-overs front and AAL rear. Also may install 1" body lift depending on tire clearance.Experiences welcomed, thanks!
    My question is will I need
    1.) wedges for the rear-end angle
    2.) drop spacers for the carrier bearing? Experiences
    3.) longer brake lines

    1) Axle shims... Likely not but depends on height achieved from AAL. Also its best to put the lift on first to determine what amount of correction is needed to bring the angle back to factory.

    2) Not likely do to amount of lift achieved (I suspect what a 2" AAL?)

    3) Nope but this really depends on the shocks since they are the limiting factor. If you are running longer shocks that allow for more droop you may stretch them a bit. An alternative to longer lines is a brake line bracket. It’s inexpensive and simply raised the lower attachment point.
