Lift is on! 6" w/ 35"s
So here she is... Kinda has a mild case of the droop ***. I want to pick up the rear to at least level, preferrably an inch or two higher than the front. Any suggestions (bigger block, add a leaf)?
All Procomp: 6" lift, extreme alloy wheels 7005 series (20" x 9.5" 5.25" BS) and 35" x 12.50" x 20" extreme MTs

Sweet *** truck and definitely add-a-leaf. You can check my album as I have the same lift as you and I put the add-a-leafs on and it leveled it perfect imo. Measured from the top of the tire to the underside of the crest of the wheel lip molding it's 1-inch higher out back (12 inch vs 11 inch) but sitting flat the truck looks almost level and worked nicely pulling a boat plus a few hundred pounds of gear, etc in the bed. Didn't notice any change in the ride. Plus I also have the same 5-inch rapid hitch as you and thought it looked a little too low before. I was able to put it one notch from the bottom after.

Thanks for the compliments! So will the AAL give me another 2"? That should make it just a hair over level (no stink bug). I plan to get the mirrors painted pretty soon, but just the top part and not the whole thing. The bars weren't too bad ($300ish). Found them on Ebay and I am real happy with them. The only mod to them I did was in adding a little grip tape on the steps. Being powder coated, they were pretty slippery at first.

Blackdawg - I like the little bit of rake that your truck has. I'm gonna order the AAL ASAP. Thanks.

I think the droop looks worse in these pictures...
When I go back to 4 wheel parts next week to have them double check all the nuts and bolts I'll get them to install the AAL. Then I'll post up a couple more pics. About the tires, I only have about 80 miles on them right now so I don't have a whole lot to say about them other than... they look cool, are non-directional (great for rotating the proper way) and make less noise than the pro comp X terrains I had on a previous vehicle, so if that helps at all...
