    Just put the same set up on my truck, except my 6112s are on the 3rd setting (1.9”). Icon AAL gave me almost exactly 1.5” Factory rake is intact, but at the 2.5” setting you are probably going to sit more level. Once you put anything in the bed you may trend towards (my worst nightmare) negative rake.

    The above post is correct, I have roughly the same setup with roughly the same results.

    Do you think shackles would be a better option fr the rear?

    Shackles would be a better option if you generally ride around without a load in the bed. Add a leaf will certainly ride harder but would be a better choice if you drive with a loaded truck or have a bed topper.

    did you end up installing this? I have the same setup (6112’s @ 2.5”, no shims), 5160’s, and I’ll be installing the Icon AAL’s tomorrow. hard to find info on them here. I loved the Icon AAL’s I had on my Tacoma, before I switched to AllPro Expo’s. can’t imagine why they would be a bad idea on a Tundra

    I haven't yet, 6112's are still om backorder. I did end up going with Coachbuilder shackles instead of the AAL though.

    I have 6112 and 5160s going up for sale in two weeks. Light usage, only 8k miles on the 5160s and 10k on the 6112s.

    CB Shackles are awesome. I wonder how long I can run my +3s for before the stock leaf pack is totally shot.
