OK i am looking to lift up the rear of the truck a little and then I am going to do a t bar crank. I am curious if I should get the AAL's or if I should get the adda leaf.. Which do you think is better and why?

AAL's or add-a-leafs? They're the same thing. AAL's is the abbriviation. Do you mean add-a-leafs or shackles? I went with shackles just because they were cheaper. I would so go with add-a-leafs if you have the money and that's all you want. I plan on getting a full 3" lift, so, I'll get add-a-leafs also.

I did the shackle first, and I will do the AALs when I have the money for UCAs as well. Both have good points and bad.

Yep same here shackles a t-bar crank. The price was hard to pass on and since I plan to go the full 3 inches eventually it was just a matter of price for me at the time.

I have the AAL's. I did the AAL's cause I was able to swap spring packs with someone who already had one AAL installed and wanted to change to a different brand. That, and if you do the AAL's after the shackles, you have to take the shackles off. If you want to do the shackles after the AAL, you don't need to take the springpack off.

You can do one or the other - there are a bunch of threads about the benifits of each. Scroll down to Xtracurriculars post in this thread and read from there...

WOW, a question that has been asked many times, 6 replies and not one wise ass comment about doing a search followed by insults.
What is this site coming to ?
Quite refreshing !
