    Hey I just installed my 3inch toytec lift with spacers and AAL's and it looks great. But there was jsut one thing that i was wondering about and it was the way that the truck drove. It seemed like the suspension in the back was insainly stiff and i could feel everytiny bump on the road. I was just wondering if this was normal or what was up so thanks for any help.

    You probably have a short AAL in the rear. I had a long AAL made at a spring shop. If the ride bothers you, you should consider this route. :)

    The stiffness is normal. Before long, you won't even notice it.
