For those with 3 leaf progressive AAL 1.5"

What amount of lift did you actually get and did you keep or remove the factory overload spring? I really only want 1" and not the 1.5".

 

With my OR DCLB 4x4 I ended up with closer to 1” than 1.5” (removed factory overload spring)

 

Icon 3 Leaf AAL gave me about 1.5 to start without the overload, may have sagged a bit since it was fresh. Holds a load fairly well too.

Any amounts of driveline vibration noted? I have heard that some do get a little, but seems sporadic.

 

I have the AAL from Headstrong and I have no driveline vibrations. I also have a Leer topper so I got a little less than the 1.5" lift. Removed the overload as well.

 

I did the ECGS bushing and have no vibes at all now, but that was due to the drivers side needle bearing and not the rear suspension.

 

^^^ This. No topper but added the HS progressive AAL and rear sumo springs to eliminate the sag from trailer and weight in the bed from camp gear. 1.5" in height increase after a year and a half. Rides fine loaded or not.

 

I forgot to mention that I also did the ECGS bearing, maybe that helped keep vibes away. The ride in the rear was unchanged in my opinion.

 

Ughh, not looking good as I really don't want the 1.5" because I only want to go 1.5" up front and want to reduce the rake a little, but not make it level. Yeah that is getting kind of picky so maybe keeping the full factory rake is ok too.

 

I had thought about just using the Sumo springs and going a little less on the front lift.

 

No vibes.

 

Headstrong’s 3 leaf AAL gave me 1.5” of lift which immediately went down to 1” with the weight of my shell (overloads removed). It’s been a year and a half and no sag. I never noticed any difference in ride quality compared to stock either.

 

not sure what you are thinking for the front. I have my Gen 3 6112's set to lowest notch - wanted low stable/firm ride and not lift. Rides sweet. 5160's in the rear with noted aal/sumo are imo premo. But that is my opinion for my use.

 

1.5" up front with 5100's.
