my d350 is steadily being setup to be a great puller. its not a toy, race truck, sled puller, etc. it's being optimized to pull those things along with a 5th wheel camper.
ok, getting ready to rebuild front and rear suspension on my truck. fronts no problem. rear i have a ?
my truck has a leaf pack with 6 leaves and 1 flat overload on the bottom. i have a frame i bought that has the same spring pack with a 4 pack of overloads on the top with brackets on the frame to contact them when loaded. thats the spring packs i was gonna use.
i looked under the parts truck and it has a 10 spring pack under it with no overloads. i can jump up and down on the rear bumper and it doesnt move.
now my thinking is the 10 pack with the 4 pack overloads added will give the best load carrying capacity but will probably chip my teeth when running empty. unloaded ride is a cosideration but not as much as loaded stability. i'm still leaning towards the 6+1+4 setup but wanted opinions on which one to run and why.
opinions and experience appreciated
