What Add-A-Leafs Are You Using?

What Add-A-Leafs Are You Using?

How much weight and/or towing capacity are you gaining?

What height gains are you seeing?

I'm looking to stick an AAL under my Raptor to give it a little better towing capacity and more importantly, I don't what the a$$-end to sag when I put a little weight in the bed.

As I understand it, the new F-150's and Raptors use the same springs. Therefore the same AAL's should work.

I currently have the front end set up on the Mid-Perch Adjustment so the truck sits just about level, but like I said, I want a little more height out of the rear and a little better load capacity.

you bought the wrong truck for hauling. the suspension of the raptor is not designed for heavy hauling. but best bet would be more unless helper bags to keep it level with hauling and keeping the travel if you actually use the truck as intended.

My F150 would sag bad whenever I put a load in it too. Especially a snowmobile, garden tractor or load of mulch/topsoil.

I'm not talking about towing a 21' Pace car hauler...

So again, what AAL's are you guys using for the newer trucks?

If I were you I'd look into getting airbags that way you can adjust for when needed, but I have ran Pro Comp and Sky Jacker add a leafs and they do the job just fine
