Hi,  Has anyone used "rough country add-a-leaf" to gain a little lift?

Is that the single leaf that is supposed to bolt under the spring pack?  I bought a set of those but the bolt hole was too small in the spring pack and I had to try to drill them out.  Used up a couple bits and quit.

I have not used that brand.  I have used others and I have one in use now on my van  gained 2 inches.  I have a lot of weight.

I bought a new set of leaf springs all the way 'round from Walck's. After installation, I was surprised at the amount of "lift" I got compared to the tired old springs. The quality of Carl's USA made springs is excellent. Old Yeller sits level now and has plenty of room for the 700x16 NDCC tires!
