    Nope you can run blocks. The AAL rides better less axle wrap, but with a block you will be fine.

    I've got billies all around and 1.5" AAL's. Billies set at 2.5 and I kept my stock coils. I threw on some 285/75/R16 and i trimmed a bit and still a tiny bit of rub, but if you put new coils on it and set the billies to the lowest there should be no rub I'm pretty sure.

    just a thought, lifting your truck will only allow you to clear certain tires at ride height. As soon as you experience any up-travel, your tires are going to rub and not fit.

    Hey moonpie
    wanted to do the same set up. Does your truck ride a little rougher with the stock coils being compressed? What aal did you use in the rear? And have you had any problems? I have a 4x4
