    Hey all-

    I was cleaning out my garage and found a 3 leaf pack AAL that I ordered from Wheelers a long time ago. I run 5100's all around, 1.75 at the front, and have had the rear spring TSB done a while back.

    I've added a bed cap a while back, and over the years, the springs just ain't what they used to be. They aren't bad, but with any load/towing- I'm riding looking at the stars (well, not that bad, but you get the idea). I'm sitting perfectly level now, where I used to have about an inch of rake. After searching and reading and searching some more- I'm wondering if anyone is running this setup- the 3 leaf pack with the TSB done, and thoughts on it. I see that some have taken the overload leaf off, and I understand I'll need to cut down the AAL, get longer u-bolts, not a bad idea for longer brake lines or to swap out for some longer travel shocks.

    Ideally there are other routes to go - BUT, I could live without doing anything, or use the kit I've got now. I've never had any vibe issues, I know it's been hit or miss for many with many different set-ups... so I'm crossing my fingers a bit there too, though being the rear, feel I should be OK as I've not had any with the lift up front.

    Thoughts are appreciated- thanks!

    I have the ICON 3 leaf with TSB and no overload. It ups the ride height 1.5 inches unloaded. Seems perfect with 200 to 250 pounds in the bed but way too stiff unloaded.
