    I'm looking opportunity a way to get 4" in the rear so I can get rid of my stupid bro lean. So the question is, is it possible to add an add a leaf to the all pro standard leaf pack? I don't want the expos, as the most weight that goes in the back are surf and snowboards and other light gear. Anyone done this? Thanks

    Not sure they're meant to be taken apart??? You could just throw a few sand bags in the bed to help add some weight? I've thrown 2 under my spar tire to help my standards run smoother. Other option is custom springs.

    I may get shit for this, but would adding a 1" block be such a bad thing. Not much block there and won't alter the ride.

    Personally I would not add an AAL to that pack, I don't see this doing anything except adding 1/4" lift (the thickness of the AAL) and making uptravel quite a bit stiffer.

    Your best option performance and ride wise would be to do an ATO shackle flip which should get you close to an additional 1" of lift.

    ^ This just add a small block. Personally I would go with the 1.5 though since it is tapered. I run this with my allpros and no issues at all.

    Smart idea....the pack is pretty stout and should be fine!

    Yeah and can't see 1" off the axle causing too much issues. A tappered 1.5" block would be great too and help correct that angle. Super cheap and easy fix too, no taking the pack apart and getting a longer center pin, just undo ubolts and jack up rear, support axle, remove lower shock bolts, lower axle, and insert block.....done.

    What about a shackle flip kit in lieu of the block? Not to keen on the block idea.

    I would rather run shackles then blocks. I have the expo leaf and all I have is a cap and they run fine.
