Got rid of my sagged out ranger leafs and Installed explorer leafs today, Removed the 2.5" lift block, I did leave the lift shackles in for now, but I might do an add a leaf and put the stock shackles back on.

Also, ya think this is why I had alignment issues? Lol.

Nice truck man! Really jealous of the twin stick and that rear bumper

About how much lift did you get from the Explorer leafs? Did you stay at about the same height with the Ex leafs but no lifting block? How was the ride quality/handling with the blocks vs just the leafs? Just curious because I just got a pair for mine and I'm debating on leaving the stock lift blocks or not.

Anyways good luck with your build! I'll be staying tuned and checking out your progress.

I would say you would get around 1.5"- 2" of lift from explorer leafs, and I got another 1.5" from the add a leaf.
I'm sitting about 1" higher than stock with the expo leafs with add a leaf and 2.5" blocks removed.

With the expo leafs with AAL it rides really good, better than my stock worn out leafs that's for sure
