Can't hack the rear of the spring off like that, without adding a way to keep the springs/axle straight/centered. Needs a track bar of some sort. Pretty heavy duty, too.
There is an aftermarket setup that does something like that, but it costs DOUBLE what a Kelderman does, and far more complicated to install. Apparently don't have one for our trucks.
But, the Kelderman does work somewhat like that setup does, by softening the ride, without having to remove springs. The suspension replaces your rear spring mount. Also acts like a fail safe, if an air bag were to let go. Can still carry the weight on the OEM spring pack with the Keldermann deflated.
