        the 4" lift with rear AAL uses a 2" block, and a 2.5" AAL.

        A body lift lifts the body off the frame, with larger mounting bushings, this can have some bad side effects.

        A suspension lift makes the axles farther below the frame, which actually gives you more ground clearance.

          i was wondering about AALs front and rear, the 2" Rustys. If the springs are really bad, would we really get 1-2" of extra height, or would it just return the ride to stock level?
          Why do I carry a gun? Because a whole cop would be too heavy.

            as far as i know that lifts the vehicle 2" over what it is current at. not 2" above stock. (such as the 4" lift is known for giving closer to 5" of lift becausse of sagged springs)

              ok... so why would you do a body lift at all??? I am looking at the 3.5-4 add a leaf and the 3.5-4 spring pack... I like the PRICE of the add a leaf MUCH better, but I need some help in what to choose... I want it a couple inches over stock... it sags in the back right now but the front looks ok. I just want a bit more ground clearance and able to use the largest tire on stock wheels...
