    I did take my measurements and sent them to Marie so I think she will know the answer now that I think about it

    I'm not positive on this but I don't think you want to put more than one AAL in a pack. I have a 1.5 AAL and I have about 1 inch of rake which Looks right to me. I even ran just a 1 inch block on the rear of my last truck and that looked good too. A little more level but still had about .5 inch of rake

    Just ordered my lift! Went with 5100 with 885s and the Deaver AAL! Hoping everyone is correct about not really needing the UCAs... planning on buying bigger tires with my bonus if I can get them for around 500....

    Will most likely go with the same setup, need to put my rear bumper on this weekend to see how much it sags before I decide on what AAL to get and what coils.

    What was your reasoning with removing the 1" block?

    Ah makes sense. I currently have an AAL but after adding a topper and rack it is a bit lower in the rear than i'd like. Considering doing this. How much extra lift did a 1" block give you?

    Hmm I thought the lift height was always more than the size of the block itself.

    Anyone running 265/70-17 on stock TRD Sport rims and do they look big enough?

    I had the same size tires, but on OR rims and they looked too small IMO. I've seen plenty of setups with 265/75/16 or 17's that looked nice, however.

    They look good, and you won't have to trim like 285's. Any wider than 265 and you may rub your uca's unless you add wheel spacers.
    Here's a pic with 885's and a 1.5" AAL.

    I am running 265 70 r16 on offroad wheels and a 2.5" lift. I agree with Jeff they are too small. Have you looked into 255 80 17s?

    255's are the jam. St Maxx's in the 16" rim version will be my next tire. Actually can't wait for mine to wear down so my wife doesn't give me a bunch of shit :burnrubber:
