Tacoma lift question

Tacoma lift question
So I slapped a winch on the front of my '04 Tacoma and figure I lost about 1/2 inch of clearance due to the excess weight. So it's lift time!
I am thinking: Kings for the front (simple, bolt on, lets me go higher in the future - current plan is to set them at 1-1.5").
But, what about the rear? again, not going for crazy amounts of lift, so I'm thinking either shackles or an AAL. Whatever you suggest, which brand/parts specifically would go good with a set of kings on the front?

AAL will ride a little rough and if you saw the other thread... may damage the rear shocks as well. Shackles are good but you'll have to reroute or cut your exhaust. Maybe a whole new leaf pack would be good for you?

i would go with shackles.. they ride like stock, and if you don't mind cutting your tailpipe behind the axle, it's not a problem (you can leave the tailpipe intact, but it may bump against the leafpack).. i went for awhile with my tailpipe cut off, and then got a new exhaust with a rerouted tailpipe.
Anyway, the AAL's are a pain in the butt to install, and a whole new leafpack is pretty pricey.
