Energy Upper Bumps ***UPDATE***
I have been using the 2 1/2" ones with a little improvement over stock, they work OK. They just mash down and give me little sooner overload engagement. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/ens-9-9109g/...

Actually, I just remembered that the left rear tire was beginning to sag and become separated. Got new tires as a result, but haven't loaded the camper since. I'd bet that was the problem.
Back to the stable loads... are the front and rears different lengths? Didn't really notice when I installed them.
Since the OL springs engage "progressively", it seems if something is used to engage them sooner, it should be sized accordingly as well. Just a thought. By engaging them equally, front to rear (or rear to front, however it works) pretty much ruins how they were designed to function, correct?
But then, having the OL's engage prematurely to begin with by anything other than the stock stops in there, changes the geometry altogether, right? Makes it's a moot point, I guess. Am I correctly understanding how they work?
I never did spend much time researching the specific details of how the OL's work in stock configuration. All I knew was that I needed SL's after I put the camper on, so I bought em. Made a remarkable difference in load height and sway.
