(3" toytec spacer, 1.5" add-a-leaf + 1.5" block)going for a dragster look? your rear end is gonna be like 2.5" higher than the front. Nice grill though

for reference here is mine with 1.5" AAL in the rear

Thanks for the info. I ordered the 1.5" block as a "just in case". I tow my boat every weekend to fishing tournaments and I'm going to be hauling a quad in the back and was worried it would sag the truck really bad. How is the hauling capability with just the AAL?

AAL is what you want it maintains towing and payload and seems to have increased it a bit. The block just keeps it the same as factory specs.

I would run a set of air bags for towing in the rear.

Thanks for the replies guys. Right now it still sits slightly higher in the rear when the baot is hooked up. I'll have to see how it sits with the lift installed.
