If you're actually getting THAT much axle wrap, then yes it'll help. I doubt you are though. Make a video with your camera pointed at your rear universal joint and I'll be able to tell you if an added leaf will help or not.

Rancho because Ford use their shocks on the Fx4 stock and they got a good deal right now $500 REBATE.
But BDS is awesome too because of their lifetime warranty and their quality very good but their shocks are decent.

Sounds like the best bang for the buck would be to get a BDS 4" with rancho shocks?

Well... It was rather lifting it, or a canopy...

The lift can wait, i like the suv look on a truck.
Yet i dont like the stink of wet dog in my cab, so i prefer a truck.

Not to mention, Im going camping for two weeks, and we are going to sleep in the back, so no truck carpet or canopy carpet... The stink would stick to it.

I do wish i could talk to the one guy who set up a wack load of led lights in his canopy
