    No axle shim. If you haven't checked yet I would check and make sure all bolts are torqued properly.

    Thanks. Checked all torque specs just the other day. I'll think I'm going to add in the D29XL AAL to the pack to lift the rear up a bit more. I'll have to keep dignossing vibes but better to make this add on now then correct it just to start all over again.

    Sounds smart. You could just get some mt's and do like I do and blame the vibes on the tires.

    Ha ha right!? Actually I already got em, been sitting in the garage mounted up and waiting to replace the stock tires. Figured it was just easier to try and chase down vibes before making the switch.

    A few things
    How far is your drive shaft pulled out from the transmission? Should be flush. Just wondering if a driveshaft spacer might help. Also I found that the bigger the CB drop spacer the more vibs I had(I bought the 1.5" Beefed Taco drop and it made it much worse). I wound up finding a sweet spot using the OME spacer plus I made another one from some stock I had, for a total of about 9/16" thick.

    It's slightly pulled out but almost not worth a spacer. I looked before the lift to confirm it was flush and post lift its not even 1/4" out. I researched some driveline spacers and it seem most start in the 3/4" realm. Currently my CB spacer consists of the OME spacer plus two washers so probably just over where you're at. It's just one of those things. I've tried almost everything others have found success with but not working for my particular rig.

    So I'm gonna put on 4" spindles and 5100's on Monday. I have a 2" AAL in the rear. If I set the 5100's to the second setting would the front be too high?

    Probably, it would be about an inch higher. The 4" Maxtrac lift/level kit comes with 2" blocks. 2" difference is about the norm, but then again mine seems like it was an inch. Mine measures the same front & rear, it looks level & the front is lifted right at 6.5" & the rear is 5.5". Best thing to do is measure hub to fender front & rear while it's stock & that will tell you how much more the front needs to be lifted than the rear. Of course this only matters if toy want it level.

    Oh okay well I only have the spindles no blocks. I was thinking if I put the shocks in the second setting it would drop about an inch if I put a plate bumper on it. Does that sound right?

    Block are for the rear & spindles only with nothing in the rear will definitely put it nose high by about 2".
    Blocks or aal either way it's like 2".
    I don't have a bumper so I'm not positive how much it will drop but it will drop.
