    I have 884x's on 5100's up front on zero and I have the 3 leaf Icon progressive aal without the overload installed on the rear of my 2005 DCSB 4x4.

    In the rear I only gained .75 inches on the drivers side and 1.25 inches on the passenger side with an empty bed, 3/4 tank of gas and new TSB 4 leaf pack.

    I got 2.25 inches of lift up front on drivers side and 2.5 inches up front on passenger side. Truck looks even and I dont like it cause i like rake and when I put my cap on it looks too low in the rear...

    Everything is installed correctly and im wondering if anyone else had such low lift numbers from these Icon aal?

    odd, i've seen some posts of users with the same progressive AAL leaving the oem overload on. Not sure how different the HS progressive AAL's are but i left the overload in place. I have the same set up as you and wanted the rake because i bought a cap.

    quick pics for reference..

    Thanks, i cant put the overload on because of the brackets. It seems that the newer 3 leaf progressive aal's don't have the option of keeping the overload without cutting one of the brackets on the overload. There's a thread on here about it somewhere.

    I might have to replace the coils with the 1.6 eibachs. Not sure what else to do...
