Thanks, I have an AAL on the way but you guys are making me reconsider installing it now.....

What does that give you, another 1 1/2"-2" in the back? Are you a little high in the front, because it seems like that in the pic? It maybe just the way it's sitting.

Ya it should give about that an its just the way its sitting in that first pic. It's pretty much level last time I measured. I like a little rake so I'm only planning on raising the front a inch if I get two in the back.

Don't mess with perfection. Also hates the cali look!

i agree, the "cali lean" is rediculous as well as the socal trucks.......to much rim not enough tire IMO, makes me think damn the ride in that truck must suck since theres barely any tire to absorb the bumps in the road

oh i do. i think anyone else does too. a lot of the cali trucks have tons of crazy work in them. just kinda ridiculous and pointless in my opinion. ride like crap and already squat before you put a load on them. reminds me of an old low rider with hydraulics with the front up. to each their own.
