I have a 2004 Access Cab with Bilstein 5100 Fronts set to 2.5, 5100 Rears and 1" lift shackle. I need about 1-1.5 of lift from an add-a-leaf, no more. Any suggestions?

Toytec. The website says 2" but I got about 1.5" with it.

We have both a singel aal set, and a 3 leaf aal set. If you don't really haul that much, and want the best ride, I would suggest the 3 Leaf AAL set.

Hey Dan, do you have a picture of the 3 leaf aal set? Does it look like the Icon or the deaver mini pack that are also 3 leafs? Thanks...:tu:

Yes the 3 leaf set is just like the Icon set. Ours is made by Alcan Spring out of Colorado.

i am going to order one off of your site but I am not sure which one to get. You said the three leaf is a better ride if you don't tow much. What kind of towing is ok with the three leaf? I tow a boat and a junkyard trailer once in a while. Would the timbrem be a good add to the three leaf for a little extra saftey?

The Single aal will stiffen up the rear about 10-15%, so it is good if you haul a lot or have a heavy canopy or something. The 3 Leaf set turns your stock pack into a progressive pack. It rides much better, but just doesn't support weight as well as the Single leaf set. Some people are running the Timbrens, to get the best of both worlds. Good ride, and able to support a lot of weight.

thank for the info. I got a cart on your site right now that goes: three leaf set, timbrens for the rear, diff drop, bpv kit, spidertrax for front and back, front coil isolators, and the tc steering bushing. I already have the 5100's coming am I missing anything? Thanks look forward to putting the order through soon

If you are going off-road a lot, I would say also get the extended rear brake line. And maybe the Sway Bar Kit. But otherwise, you are good to go.

How much lift out of the single AAL?
I just put the wheelers single AAL in my tundra a couple weeks ago. I got 2inches of lift out of it and i did measure carefully before and after the install. The ride is great and my truck is a 2000 with 170k on it so maybe it took a little sag out of the ole springs. Hope this helps you out

My Wheelers single aal gave me 1 1/2" lift. The ride feels just a touch stiffer. I also have an are lid which adds a little weight
