    Right now I'm currently running the OME N182 rear shocks designed for the dakar leaf pack and I'm wondering if they're long enough for the all pro expos, or would you just get the dakars and aal instead? i do more hauling than extreme flexing just for the record

    they are long enough. but if you just do more hauling go with a progressive leaf pack and save some money.

    Too many to list now.
    I thought you could get an AAL for the dakars to get a full 3" out of them. Is that not accurate? I may go that route just to get the most carry capacity and lift out of them.

    No I don't already have the dakars, that's what I meant by getting the aal. Just for the sake of keeping all the suspension OME Ill probably get the dakars and aal
