I would give it a little bit and see how much the leaves sag when they get broken in and then go from there. IIRC you've only had them for a month or two right?

I didn't realize they had been on that long. In that case I would just throw the isolators in to level it out.

Yea but my main problem is the transmission, it got repaired less than a year ago and I dont wanna change it I think with tires and a locker she will do fine, but then again comes my mind to mess with me to get 4wd
