Old Man Emu AAL

I've been looking into add-a-leaf systems for the rear of my '87 Xtra Cab lately, and of course I've found the standard ProComp 13120 and Rancho 60612.

After some digging, I also found the OME D5XL, but I can't find a description anywhere. Has anyone tried these, or know anything about them? They're really cheap, under thirty bucks, so I'm wondering if they're sold individually, and also whether they're short or long.

It sounds like the ProComp stuff is garbage, and I haven't really found any reviews of the Ranchos… anyone?

Most OME is fantastic quality. Pro Comp and Rancho aren't as great, but they'll do the job.

For a short term fix, any you listed will work fine.. The only problem is they are add a leafs. Unless you re arc your current leafs while installing the AAL, you're just gonna go back to sagging. And if you don't have access to a machine that'll do that for you, you're running your price back up almost to the price of cheaper leaf packs..

Just go with whatever is cost effective.
