    I also was pretty clear - stock leafs aren’t meant to carry 200lbs in the back (variable as your OP states) plus your camper (constant weight). They WILL sag over time and are notorious for this, hence why many ditch them, including myself). Mine “settled” with zero weight whatsoever after a year.

    Change out the shitty stock leafs and be done with it if you plan to carry any sort of weight. Simple ass fix.

    Well it’s a truck not a caddy. What about nose dive , body roll on turns and softness. Definitely way better with 5100’s I would say but to each there own.
