    All,

    Please excuse my ignorance, but I just had a suspension lift installed on my 2013 DCSB 4x4 TRD Sport. The lift is as follows:

    - 5100 Bilsteins front and rear w/1/4" driver side space (Taco Lean) from Wheeler's Off Road

    - Toytec Eibach coils; Front Billies set at .85"

    - 1.5" Progressive AAL from Wheeler's Off Road

    Here are the dimensions I got after the lift on a pretty flat surface:

    Driver side front - 36 1/4" (ground to bottom of fender); 22 1/2" (center of wheel to bottom of fender)

    Passenger side front - 37 1/4" (ground to bottom of fender); 23 1/4" (center of wheel to bottom of fender)

    Driver side rear - 37 1/2" (ground to bottom of fender); 23 1/4" (center of wheel to bottom of fender)

    Passenger side rear - 38 3/4" (ground to bottom of fender); 24 3/4" (center of wheel to bottom of fender)

    I'm no expert, but shouldn't these numbers be fairly close to one another? The passenger side specifically looks "off."

    Can anyone give me some insight/personal experience?

    I've got some pics of the AALs (where I think the problem is as I had the coilovers pre-assembled before being shipped), but I'll need someone to walk me through posting pics.

    I appreciate it. Other then the dimensions being off, the truck rides great! Very noticeable difference. Aesthetically, it looks awesome!

    Thanks

    I just threw a level on the top of the tailgate and it's almost perfect.

    So confused.

    Also, after looking through the parts that were removed, the installer removed the control leaf altogether. Is that right? I'm looking at other threads regarding Wheelers 1.5" Progressive AAL and each pic has (from bottom to top) the control leaf, the AAL and the original leafs.
