Man I would definetly add another leaf then, even if you decided to get the air bags as well. I too got chinced out with just two leafs which I think is pretty damn weak on a full size truck and will be adding a leaf. A three leaf pack is pretty standard anyway and will just toughen up your truck. Don't worry about your ride, F-150's come stock with the three leafs if you get the max tow package. The other day I loaded my box with about 1000lbs of concrete and it was embarassing how much it sagged.....def adding a leaf.

Hmm which AAL should I go with as well then? I really don't want to much lift out of the AAL since I can gain it with the bags.

well I think the bags will only lift your truck if you got em pumped full of air, which you would only do for hauling some heavy loads. Unless you want a sore back lol.

There's lots for our truck, just google it. I'm getting mine custom fitted from a reputable spring shop in my home town.
