Best riding AAL?

Does anybody know what the best riding AAl are? I currently have Rough Country short AAL. How much better do the long ones ride? Do the long ones lift as high? My back-end is really stiff. If I jump up and down on it it barely moves. Do any AAL ride very well? Thanks

forgot this part.

They ride so rough, the front is nice.(stock) maybe get bj spacers and lower the torsion bar a bit.

The Rancho Soft-Ride AAL kit is good, has a long thin leaf and a shorter, thicker leaf that you can mix-n-match as needed for the ride height and load capacity you need. http://www.gorancho.com/

get a hold of alcan and have them make a custom long one... will probally ride the best... they quoted me 56 for a pair....

short AAL's are horrible... they are harsh, and dont bend... which puts unnatural stress on the stock leaves, so when you flex your leaves make a W... not good... you are smart to want to ditch it..
