    I recently had a 4.5 BDS Coil Over lift installed and in the process found I had a cracked leaf spring. I am now shopping for a replacement set. The BDS kit gives the truck a slightly lower rear.

    Any suggestions/experience with adding aftermarket leaf kits to a similar lift? I am looking to get at least a level stance but would prefer a slight rake.

    Thanks

    See if any of these help below. Also Deaver and Alcan and build you leaf springs based on your needs- lift, capacity, etc. Icon, OME, have lifted leafs and I think Dobinsons and Elka offer them too. There are also add a leafs available to add to your current springs.
