    I think deavers can make you a custom leaf pack, I read that on here somewhere, I think it was for the same reason you want it

    What about buying Spindles and setting your Bilsteins down to 0'' or .85'' ? Then you should be able to keep your 285's so you aren't spending money on new tires. The cost of the spindles is a little less than those Kings too.

    This will give you the rake you're looking for up front.

    That was my initial plan but, in the end, I'm pretty much getting the ride of 5100s at 0 as opposed to Fox/Kings at 0 and we all know who wins that battle.

    Basically I want the full benfits of foxs without a factory rake. I may go with a custom leaf pack but that brings up the question: will the custom pack ride as good as a "regular" one? I'm guessing not but well see

    I have a Deaver 11-Pack in the rear. It's given me about 1.5'' over stock in the rear. According to the guys at Deaver they said the 10-Pack would give you about .5'' over stock after it's completely broken in. I don't know if they make a 9-Pack set of leafs but that might keep it at factory height or less in the rear, only problems is you would probably be sagging in the rear a lot when you're loaded up.

    I may just end up getting the TC spindles, save money on tires and continue using my 33s, and use a full leaf pack. Ill set my billys at 0 and get some better springs.

    Unless someone has $1,000 lying around that is just taking up room....

    I can take it off your hands and put it into some new CO...
