Countdown until truck gets lift/tires/rims: 9 days!

Hey guys so I finally bit the bullet and went ahead and ordered everything to lift my truck next Friday. I ended up going with the pro comp stage 1 lift, 35 inch toyo open country a/t, and the 18 inch pro comp 7005 rims. I'm getting it all done at 4 wheel parts Orlando, they've been very helpful thus far. My only question I have left is, do you think I should put the AAL on it, or do you think it will sit level? If so, what size AAL? I've seen plenty of trucks on here and some look level but some look like the rear could use an inch or so. I'd rather take care of this now rather than have to get it done in the next couple of months. The truck is a 2008 supercab, and yes it is 2wd (don't hate).

Cool deal man, You will love. I remember the first day when I went to pick my truck up. I especially remember when I said that was all I was gonna do to the truck. That did not last long. I would think you would need a Aal, usually procomp lifts sag about 2" lower in the rear. But thats mainly cause they stack the factory 2" block with a 2.5" block.

Sounds like a sweet setup.

you can either get a 5/6" block to replace the stacked blocks/ 1.5" lift shackles or an 1.5/2" AAL to bring the rear up.

Depending on what you tow and how stiff of a ride you want will determine if you should get the AAL. Unless you'll be towing something heavy I'd go with a 1.5" lift shackle that way you'll still have a soft ride in the rear. These are a couple of pic's when I first had my truck lifter w/ just the PC lift.

thanks guys for all the congratulatory responses. 5 more days, I'm super stoked at the moment. The guy at 4 wheel parts "assured" me that this kit will sit level, so I'm gonna let him go ahead and do it as is for now, and when I have to bring it back in for them to check everything if I feel like the AAL is necessary then I'll go ahead and have it done then. I'll post pics up as soon as I get it back
