    correct

    i don't see an issue with a small lift AAL, but if you want a full 3 inches, an AAL is not the way to go. iven a 3 leaf AAL isn't going to be too great at that point.

    I was thinking a 2" aal with a 1" block to keep it cheap or if he has the $ he could buy bornwildguy's 3" leaf packs. I would if I had the money.

    Get the 1.5 block if getting one since it is tapered and the 1" blocks are just flat. Will help with the driveline angle a lil.

    when installed, i'm gonna try to go with my 1'' that I already have first, to see if the back is lower at all, then maybe i'll go with your suggestion, bornwildguy, btw, do u have ANY vibs? I noticed u do have the carrier bearing drop as well as the driveshaft spacer, I know that a lot of people have had great success with the cb drop, but i honestly don't see it doing much :notsure:

    spruce, mine is the 2'' skyjacker one, but the spacer is only 1'' thick, so i'm thinking it really only gives me 1.5'' lift, i didn't take before and after measurements :( well i did but replaced the shocks too, and left the paper at 2010trd's house

    So your going to be 5"-6" in the front depending how much the maxtrac's actually lift it. Your gonna have to be at least 4" in the rear. My spacers measure 1.5" & they gave me 3".
