I had a similar issue with an older Salem F/R. I went from stock (3500#) to 4800# springs and it added about 2" more clearance. Simple afternoon job.
Upgrade springs have been ordered. 5-leaf to replace 4-leaf. 5000# plus load rated. Just the extra leaf will get me a little more clearance.
Local tire shop (Big O Tires), is doing it.
Won’t change the load limits on the axles, 3500#, but might solve the problem.
Might. But the stiffer springs might increase the impact on the axle, cause it to bend...
