    Interesting, how'd you know to remove that leaf specifically?

    I'm sitting a little higher on the rear passengers side as well.

    Most likely, but I wanted it 100% level all the way around which removing that leaf did.
    Just looking around here and some helpful members. The third leaf down is actually the one OME recommends removing if you're going to modify the leaf pack.

    Thank you! I noticed that the other day when I took out the leaf springs. There was a little clunk before and now it's gone haha. There was also a nice scrape from the end of the bolt. Nothing some sanding and black paint couldn't fix.

    Mine did the same thing because the logical side of my brain said put it in so you can pull it out with out disassembling other things..... I ended up taking it apart and switching it around.

    I am going to pick up a 1/2 shim from Wheelers when I get the u-bolt flip kit and see if it fixes my lean, thanks for the follow up!

    So I forgot to get a picture of the back (I know I know. I'll get one later), but here's how it sits now. Love it! @wobble
