    I lifted my truck with heavy duty dakar leaf packs a few months ago. When I first installed them the truck sat pretty high in the rear and I loved the look! Now they have settled and the truck is sitting pretty level. Not to mention I can't get these damn leaf packs to stop squeaking. Anyone have a recommendation on a leaf pack I can buy that will keep my truck raked and not settled down to level?

    Here's a picture of what it looked like before it leveled out...this is the stanced I'm hoping to achieve...thank you guys in advance!

    Have a set of leaf packs custom made from a company like Alcan or similar. They won't be cheap, but that's your best bet for what you're trying to do. All springs will settle some, but a custom made set will just sit much higher initially and then settle to where you want them. If you're serious about it, give Bill at Alcan a call. He's a nice guy and very knowledgeable. I'm very happy with the set I purchased from them.
