Bought a auto spring 1 1/5 level the other day... Looks like I'm going from 5.5 to about 6.5 or 7 inches....

Doing away with blocks and going with a leaf package... Wondering how is that going to affect my shocks...

Nice. I'm very happy with my leaf springs. Are you planning on keeping your factory block, because that would be my only recommendation for you. If not, prepare to feel every bump in the road. Oh, and I had to increase my shock size as well, so maybe check into some fox, or king replacements? (jk)

Hey KR4life,


How is truck set up now? Lift or level with blocks? Reading the thread, I see you are talking about airbags. I had them on my wk truck 11' XLT 4x4 and it was great. I traded in my 09 f250 screw 4x4 and my 11 XLT and bought a 12 KR 150 screw w EB 4x4 and just leveled it and added airbags. I was wondering if I did a lift could I keep my AB? I Like the height on urs. It's sick. ?

I had a 04 like ur white KR, but I went thru 4 trans under 30k, so I dumped it. I loved that truck though.


Here's my new one.

Yeah I wanted to go with leafs to get rid of the sag when adding weight in the bed... Would like to keep my Rancho 9000's but they were made for a 4in.... Not 7.... I could probably do lift shackles with add a leaf and get my extra 2 inches....

Now I need to hunt down shocks

I now have the Rancho 4in.... Previous it was the AS 2 1/2 level with 3in rear blocks... Air bags because I hate blocks... If gives me a sag when hauling or pulling... Replacing all of that with airbags... You got the firestones?? You should be able to keep it with no issues... Just add more air... There was a photo that I saw a few months of an adapter plate to compensate for the extra lift

Thinking about going with the camburg uca... The Rancho gave me roughly 5.5 inches of lift.... Plan on adding a 1 1/2 autospring level.... That should put me at a little of 6" or more... Any thoughts??

I've been eyeballing those for a while, if you don't like them you can give them to me.
