Getting ready for 37's - 3" or 4" AAL
 
Is skyjacker they only one that makes a AAL in the 3" to 4" range? I'm about 1.5" lower in the rear and already have a 5" block and 2" aal installed from last year. What does the Rize kit use to lift the rear to match the 8" lift up front?

I got the 2.5" AS back on today, gave me about 2 1/4" lift in the front. I'll take some pics tomorrow. Just have stock wheels/tires on right now, 37's want be here until Tuesday.

I want pictures of your cv angles :beers:

I'll get some but it will be tomorrow. (wife took the camera today)

IMO, they are not any more then when I had the 2.5" spacer on without a lift. I still plan on getting dirt logic in a few months (like 12/25 :D)

It's not my daily driver so it will work for a few months, just want to fix that sag a$$ look.

I had issues with 37's rubbing every once in a while with just the 6" lift. So I went the 2.5 AS and the 4" AAL just a couple of months ago. No issues now, and it looks great! No more of that saggy a** syndrome...:)

What lift do you have on your truck. How has the truck been after you put on the AS any issues of any kind.

Bump I wanna know about your set up also... please describe. Wheels, backspacing, lift brand... all the goodies :D

Before adding the additional 2" of lift up front. I was running the 6" Rize Block plus a 2" add-a-leaf which sat perfectly level.

So how much lower are you now? What's your plans to fix? Are you keeping the spacer on the front?

ThumperMX113 Sep 23, 2007 12:19 PM

It's 2" lower in the rear currently. I'm going to add a 4" Deaver leaf pack. It's a complete leaf pack with bushings for $530. I think it's got another leaf from the factory set-up as well.

Hey Thump what did you say you did to add the 2" up front.

ThumperMX113 Sep 23, 2007 09:17 PM

Bilstein 5100s.

How much did that change your cv angles and upper ball joints?
