Hey guys, im Aj the one that had the problem with tuff country not sending me coils, and if you havent already found out, they sent them for free this last spring. Well i just got the lift put on, and wheels and tires are now being put on as we speak. My only problem is when i first got the truck, it seemed the rear suspension was a little saggy, and once i put the lift on, the front seems to be more than 1 inch higher than the rear. The lift is supposed to be 3 in the rear and 4 in the front. I was thinking about putting taller blocks in the back, but idk where to find them. Any other suggestions? I will see what it looks like after the wheels and tires, and i will have pictures up sometime tomorrow.

This happens with every Tuff Country kit installation on Rangers/Mazdas,

I used a beltech shackle, in addition to their AAL, and the height was perfect.
