I'm hoping to get to a scale this weekend. I was originally looking for a 3500 GMC, but had a hard time finding what I wanted. From what I have read, then only major difference between 2500 to 3500 is an additional spring
. Eitherway, I'll probably just leave it for now. It just seems the back end needs to be raised a lot more to release the bars than my previous set up (Sequoia w/ 10k Equalizer).
THanks
that one spring makes the difference between a Class 2 vs Class 3 pickup?
A 6.001k-10K GVWR vs a 10.001K-14k GVWR pickup ?
There has gotta be more to it than one leaf in the spring pack, as
the GVWR number is the OEM's warranty & liability contract with their
buyers/owners & the biggie the government
I have 1 ton help springs on my Silverado. Does NOT touch the frame/bumper
stops till about 1.5 inches of travel. Premium shocks (MonoMax) and
ride quality is NOT on my have to have list. No one who rides with me
knows that there are 1 ton coil helper springs back there...even after
loading up 2.4K-3K worth of firewood/pellets
Air bags do the same thing, but cost more and has ADJUSTABILITY that
coil helper springs do not have
Air bags complicate the WD setup and will take several adjustments
to dial it in...plus each time if the tongue weight changes with your loading
of the trailer
