    They will settle.

    Mine have probably settled close to a inch in 18 months

    I still love them and I have carried a few heavy loads with them as well

    Also, I had some vibe issues with the FT carrier drop. 1 piece DS solved it

    Its nice, I bought the brackets for the FT from another member, and then used Alcan and Icon C/O and extended lines, not brake line bending or coil spacers up front.

    The Alcans will max out the FT rear shocks if you are still running them

    Man this build is going fast and furious! The leafs definitely look more fitting than the blocks and AAL. Your gonna need some steps to get in it next, maybe some AMP research???$$$$$
