    Wow man that looks great. I don't know why alot of people skip the 3 leaf progressive AAL - its cheaper and preserves ride quality.

    Any driveline vibrations with the lift?

    I haven't noticed any vibration, I still need to raise the BPV, I have some scrap in the garage to fab one just need to get a few other things around the house done.

    OME 881 coils with OME nitrochargers shocks up front. TC UCA's OME Dakars with extra leaf in the rear. Warn 8000 winch with 80ft custom braided synth line. Custom 60ft synth extension. All pro tube bumper, Hi-lift jack, Safari Snorkel, Wilco tiregate. 2019 Jeep JLUR.
    They didn't give you one with the kit?
    Thats pretty much the exact kit that I went with. Did you keep the stock shocks in the front and what shocks did you go with in the rear? I went with the pro comps.
    Trying to figure out if I can stuff 285/75's in there.

    No bracket for the BPV in the mini leaf pkg, that kit is kinda a bitch to install at least on the driver side I had to use 2 floor jacks, one suporting the pumpkin, the other lifting the disassembled leaf spring, raiseing it up so I could get that center bolt in the leaf spring once I had all the leafs positioned. 5100's all the way around.

    When I was looking into AAL's, the guy at Wheelers told me the 3 leaf actually cut down on load capacity since it removed the overload leaf. If you don't care about that, from what I understand the 3 leaf can give better ride quality than adding a single AAL.

    Either way, your truck looks good!
