    I'm looking for stock height in the back (maybe a max of 1 inch lift), but with more load capacity, as height is less of concern. My rear shocks also need replacing and I would like the 5100's (currently on my front), but I'm told a lift is necessary.

    My questions:
    1) Whats the next best rear shock replacement for stock leaf height? I want ones that keep my tires stuck to the road, as currently by back kicks out (scary) if I hit bumps at fast speed.

    2) What brands offer OME leafs but with better load capacity?
    3) Or, do I get an AAL? As it should give me more load capacity and not really conflict with any stock engineering? (ie. brakelines, vibrations).

    Thanks, and open to all suggestions.
