Installed AAL

Finally got around to installing my procomp add-a-leaf and shim plates after having them for over a month. Took me and my brother about 2 hours from getting tools together and cleaning afterwards. First side was a pain until we figured out the method of getting the leafs back together. 2nd side went in half the time. I'll get some measurements and pictures tomorrow at work. It's too dark now. I'm guessing the leaf gave me 1 1/2" and shims gave 3/4". 2 1/4" over all. 6 3/4" with the lift block.

Looks decent... Too bad you used Procomp though... Not a fan after my brother's Procomp lift came apart on him while out in the sticks.

The lift is not a procomp, it is Mcgaughys. The AAL is procomp. Im sorry to hear your brother had problems but mine is a different setup
