Heavy Duty Leaf Packs

A year ago or two years ago, a member on here was having leaf packs made for 2nd gens. (could have been longer ago than that )
Anyway, my Deavers have had it and im tired of the sag. I have a lot of extra weight on my rig and was hoping to find his thread and finally get a set ordered from him. But searching I havent been able to locate it yet. I even checked all of my old PMs thinking i had possibly messaged him before, but nope

He offered a lifted leaf pack and then a heavier pack with 5 leafs possibly? A couple of members had ordered them and said they really liked them over their old AllPros or Deavers

 

Did you have a look at the Icon RXT pack?

 

Honestly I havent looked at many "new" options for my truck. Havent been active on here much in the last 2 years maybe, and I just remembered his thread. Im running a steel high clearance, swingout, full spare, bed cage, rooftop tent, and awning. 2.5" Kings up front and 12'' Kings out back with Timbren bumps

 

That name sounds real familiar. Any idea if he still sells them?

 

You could always try to reach back out to ^ for the set. I don't know much about it.
The Icon RXT pack allows you to run a 600lb load with a 1.125" lift if you have all the leafs installed. You can also adjust the pack by removing leafs if you need to.

 

I am looking to keep my 2-3" of lift on top of carrying the weight. Thats the problem, the Deavers I have now have been great. I got them in a trade, they were for a 4" lift but maybe 300lbs of weight? on my truck its been 2-3" of lift and has lasted for 5 years now I bet

 

You need Deaver 402u stage 2 or 3s

 

You should contact Deaver... I know they offer a service where you can send in your current pack and they will clean them up and re-arch them. You could probably get them to add extra leafs in there as well.

 

Go to ALCAN site. They let you specify lift and weight. They are very good about making sure you get what you need. I have them and am very satisfied.

 

Instead of the on line junk why not try a a local spring shop and have them install a couple more leafs. That's what I did. To look at it you'd think my truck came from the factory with 5 leafs per side.

 

I don’t believe he does but you can reach out directly to the company. I tracked them down from another thread on here, they’re ATS Springs out of Pennsylvania. I bought a set of them about 2 months ago and have no complaints.

they don’t sell them on their website so you’ll have to reach out via calling or social media (I got ahold of him on Instagram) and they’ll hook you up. They somehow were delivered within 2 days of shipping as well.

I got close to 4” of lift with the 4+1 pack they offer. There’s also a 5+1 version but I’m sure they can make anything you want.

Edit:

Here's the thread I initially saw them on.

For the price they can't be beat!

 

OP, go weigh your truck. It’s the only way to know what you really need to support it.

My truck doesn’t have a tent, yet weighs just over 6020lbs. I ended up getting a custom Alcan spring pack made.

 

Dakar heavy duty all the way.

 

^^ yep that’s them. Bobby is great. Sorry guys I am almost never online anymore. Hope everyone is well.

 

I have a camper that weighs about 300# and will load as much a 500 or 600 more on it. I have deaver leafs stage II. It handles the weight really good.

 

Another vote for alcan, I have them and love them. Custom built for your needs.

 

Personally, I've been eyeing Dobinson's suspension kits for when I'm ready to armor up my Taco. Anyone have thoughts on their leaf packs?

 

I had those before the Deaver's, they started aging after 4 years

 

Read up on all the sagging with Deaver's after just a year or so.

 

Any idea what the part numbers are for the poly bushings the guys are swapping to in these? I plan on giving Bobby a call soon
