My front axle carries about 4,200 pounds, and the rear 6,200 pounds. Except for how they bolt up, I think they are the same shocks.
From what I have read, most people run "dual shocks just because they look cool". I ask one fellow why he had four shocks on each side of a truck that was lifted over 12-inches, with no load. He was real quick to respond, "just because they look cool". The truck was a 4x4, and the guy lived in San Francisco. It was so high, no way could he haul a TC. Not a single scratch in or on the truck. He did have some high dollar wheels and tires on it. The tire wear on the front suggested he had issues. It did not look "cool" to me.
