    yea it should sit pretty close to level. if you want a cheaper option, rebuild your leafs by putting donor leafs from another truck. thats what i did and i have a little rake but i have OME 881 coils with billies set at the middle setting. if i had eibachs, i would probably be dead level.

    hopefully i get some extra monies for eibachs:cool:

    Thanks, I knew someone would say that. This picture was taken about 30 minutes north of Montana. Wind here blows about 70 mph and we can have 2 feet of snow in the morning and it could be sunny and no trace of snow in a matter of ours. has its ups and downs. great for wheeling, hunting fishing and hiking.
