Poll: How many 1T TC haulers have not modifyed their suspension?

Interested in hearing from those that are using their SRW or DRW 1T truck STOCK without any modifications to haul their TC.

EDIT: I should add context. After reading this and other TC Forums for years I've come to the conclusion that just about EVERYONE mods their truck to better carry their TC. (even the 450x and 550x folks but for this poll they don't count, I'm only interested in 1T truck owners with TC)

This is what lead me to ask: who does NOT modify their truck to carry their TC?

Thanks in advance,

I run a stock 2019 GMC 3500 6.0 Gasser and haul a Nortstar Pop up with a wet weight of 2200 lbs.
I have no modifications to the rig and the factory springs do not touch the overload bump-stops
(You were probably looking for someone with a heavier load, sorry)

I could go stock when not hauling my horses but the rig rides better with upper and lower stable loads than it did stock

2016 Chevy 3500HD.
Special ordered from Chevy. Modeled after an article in truck camper magazine where they went to length ordering their own SRW TC hauler. We have a dry 3300lb plus Wolf Creek 840. Only mods, move spare tire to a front carrier .

New shocks over the years but all else is stock for the vehicle in my sig. Over GVWR but no handling issues whatsoever in more than 100,000 miles.

I'm stock, 2019 Ram dually, air suspension, hauling Bigfoot 10.4. So I am well under payload. I wonder what would let me float over potholes on a dirt road?

Sorry but no. I was specifically asking in a TC forum about TC hauling with a stock truck.

Not really, TC load is top heavy.

I ran completely stock for a couple years before adding Rancho RS9000 shocks. I’m not sure I really noticed much of a difference to be honest, maybe a little less rocking when turning into driveway cuts. No other changes made. I even ran the stock tires for 12 years.

2005 Silverado 3500 SRW with Eagle Cap 950, usually towing a 6x10 cargo trailer.

I did my first trip, a thousand mile trip with no mods on my 2006 F350 SRW. It was fine. I added mods later to make it better and add more room for error. That is, I added 19.5s, Rancho adjustable shocks, etc.

I put on similar mods to my F450 only because I wanted the ability to level the rig with a trailer attached.
