back is stock.the truck has the highest g.v.w for a 1/2 ton(can't remember code).had 4 leaves in back if i remember right.when i got the truck it had a massive rake to it .i initially put in rubber spacers in between front coils and it kinda helped. and have 31x10.5/15 wrangler duratracs(awesome tires).

How did you figure out those would fit your truck? I did not see it match up on the Moog website. I was considering putting the front leveling coil springs on mine.
