    Hey yall just looking for some recommendations for rear leaf springs to go with the eibach stage 1 lift kit. Its set for 2.5" for the front so I'm looking for somthing to level out the truck. I dont carry any additional weight asides from the odd time loading up some gear to go camping. It's a 09 4x4 access cab.

    IMO Icon RXT is the sweet spot for most of us. Fairly affordable vs the higher end options and can be installed in 3 different configurations depending on your needs.

    Yep... RXT. For a access cab/ no weight/ level look with 2.5" front i'd go with option 1 (the way it's shipped.) Might even give you a bit of rake which imho is a good thing for when you load up. What's your front & back center of hub to bottom of fender measurments right now and is that with the front 2.5" lift installed or not?

    If the rake from the rxt leafs is to high for my liking am I able to remove a leaf from the pack? I heard that it gives over a 3inch rake in the rear without the AAL that comes with the pack.

    as far as removing leafs to go lower than option 1 i wouldn't do it... but check with Icon. If option 1 is too high maybe look into the icon 3 leaf aal pack?
