    Here are pics of my New All Pro rear expo lift. I fit great and put my truck up about 3 ½ inchs just where I needed it. I put a new arb bumper on and it dropped my front end about 1 ½ inchs so I needed to go up. This in turn made my rear sag and the leafs sucked anyway so I just bought this set up from All Pro with expo leafs. Thanks to Kurtis at all pro who got this all done for me with no hassle.

    So here are the pics let me know what you think:

    Here is my truck fully loaded with a big ass trailer, it barley moved down. My friend who I borrowed trailer from freaked out that the truck didn’t even drop a bit when we hooked up trailer. He said his ford f150 would drop a whole lot with the trailer empty.

    Set up almost done:

    Had to trim bump stops to make them work but its all good, if you order kit ask them to give you the flip kit that is set up for the bump stops they sell that way it is threaded with two holes for your original bump stops so you can reuse:

    Extended brake lines:

    Had to make this bracket extension for the emergency brake cable, the original leafs had a bracket for the brake cable on both sides, but you cant reuse it so you will have to make one like this to keep cable out of the way and so that it can move with the truck frame:

    Well the ride is kind of hard but I expected that and its a truck not a Cadillac but it defiantly gets the job done.

    Yea, I had the sliders put upside down so I could use them as a step as well. They are welded to the frame. They worked out great this way and do the same job.

    I know its an old thread...but figured I ask here instead of creating a new thread.

    To the OP or anyone. I recently installed AllPro Expos and WE standard (non-adjustable and/or non-resi).

    The ride seem stiff from the expos and soft from the WE shocks?

    Also, there seems to be more body roll in the rear?

    I originally had standard All-Pro springs and bilstein shocks. Much better ride.

    Any adivce or help would be great!

    Thanks
