Add-a-leaf questions

Hey guys, I know the question has been asked before. I am wanting to do the add-a-leaf lift to the front of my truck (the one in my sig.), and want to know which kit ya'll used and how you liked it. I'm stuck between skyjacker and superlift, kinda leaning to skyjacker. I have a pair of their springs on the back of my blazer and love them. Thanks in advance for any and all help.

I bought my add-a-leafs a couple years ago for my front. I'm not sure what brand they were now, but I purchased them through (I think) Auto Anything off the net. They were decently priced at the time.

I'm sure you'll be happy with one of the brands you mentioned. It makes a heck of a difference on the ride and the space between the spring stops. The ride on my truck improved %100.

Some folks get their fronts re-arched... I'm not exactly sure if thats the way to go... but I didn't have a shop close by capable to do that so it wasn't an option.

Install is fairly easy as well. Just make sure you have a good floor jack.
