    3rd gens are different animals. They can get away with stock tires and 4.88s. Forget the standard gearing charts/thoughts when manufactures starting putting double overdrives in.

    Do you have a third gen to have given him such misguided advice without actually knowing? I have a third gen with 33's and 5.29's and it is definitely not too low.......

    Made me look up Transmission "Double Over-drive". I learned something new today although I am not sure I understand the point of "doubling" it.

    Currently have a HD darker leaf pack and want about 1in more of lift in the rear. Is it possible to take out an overleaf and put in an AAL? If so, which leaf do I remove and what do you recommend to add?

    are there any offroad races or time-challenge events in Colorado? In Tennessee, we had the Red Clay Rally. I was hoping there was something similar in CO.

    What hasn't been modified?
    Yes it’s possible, but you can simply just add a leaf to increase height and weight capacity. Second or third leaf in the pack is where you can put an aal.
