smoother ride while retaining same amount of lift
well as some of you know i have my #1 tbars maxxed out and an AAL in the rear with k springs minus the stock block with rancho rsx5000 shocks
im trying to retain a smooth ride while still having the abillity to tow a trailer without sagging to bad
now dont tell me to let my tbars down because it rode the same b4 i maxed them out and ive seen much worse LCA angles,
i have a long AAL in the rear but idk what brand etc cuz the previous owner put it in but nonethe less it gave like 3 1/2 inches of lift idk how but it did
it has 5 leaves in the pack with the AAL 3rd from the top is this too many leaves or is the AAL installed wrong
here is a pic from b4 taking the stock block out with 1 in tbar crank
and here it is after taking out the block and maxing out the tbars btw i only got 1 3/4 in out of them could they be worn out?

well the truck came with the AAL and yes it is the long one only reason i maxed the tbars is to level it out that didnt work so i removed the stock block in a last chance to level it out
and the main reason i made this thread is after i put 33s on i want the ride to be similar to what it is now seeing as the bigger tires are gonna make the ride rough
so basically it is what it is its a truck deal with it? not much i can do

bigger tires make it ride better more rubber... and you dont need maxed t-bars and AAL WITH body lift to fit 33's un crank your bars pull the AAL reinstall your rear block and call it a day. the truck can only handle around 6000lb towing you arnt pulling anything that the stock leaf packs cant handle

thanks for the advice
yea tires are def way to small i have a deal lined up for some 33 bfg AT
and the shocks are fairly new but i really dont think they are that great of quality anyways
eventually i will get bilstiens 5100 (my dad just put those on his truck and they are the **** they are so smooth)
if i change out the AAL for a short one will the ride be better or close to what it is now?
and oh yea how can i tell if the tbars have sagged to where they need to be replaced? it seems like the camber keeps getting worse and worse like they are sagging more and more but i dont want to spend $$$ on em if they are still good
