    Hey, you can definitely mix shackles and AAL or expansion packs. The question I would have to help get the best solution is what do you use your truck for? How weighted down does it get, do you need flex to Offroad, etc...

    I have the Icon RXT leaf packs on option 2 with TC shackles and am level with a 3.5” lift in the front. Think you could go option 3 and be good, just might be a little stiff. Or just go with option 2 and add some shackles that lift more than my 3/4” shackles.

    how I sit:

    Good luck!

    How long have you had your RXT leafs, what shocks did you pair them with, and how happy are you with this setup? I’m looking for a rear suspension solution for my truck, and your setup is pretty similar to mine.

    I have ADS 2.5 triple bypass rear shocks, and absolutely love the ride my truck gets. Before the ADS I had adjustable reservoir King 2.5 shocks and think it also rode great with that set up. The amount of flex the RXT pack gives is pretty incredible and it provides a good amount of lift at option 2. I would recommend these leafs without hesitation.
