My Saggy Rear

I’ve been searching and not finding quite the right solution. I’d like to do an add a leaf to my OEM setup, not sumo or airbags.
I’m not interested in lifting the whole truck but ideally restore the rake with the added constant weight of my shell. I pull a small camper periodically with a tongue weight under 400lbs.

What add a leaf or leaf packs are recommended for stock ish ride height with the added weight?

 

What exactly is your question? Not being rude at all just wanna help.

I have the Icon AAL, but if you’re carrying and hauling that kind of weight you will probably need a full leaf pack to prevent sag.

 

IMO if you're looking to regularly carry extra weight a set of replacement leafs is the solution.

 

Fixed for clarity thank you.

 

I have Dobinson’s leaf packs on my truck and have had no sag since installing them years ago.

 

Yup.

With my AAL, I still get some sag with my ARE shell and alot of gear in the bed if it’s really loaded down. I think a full leaf pack would be the only solution for no sag like that while towing a camper plus the shell and gear in the bed.

 

^^this get new leafs 1.5 (or close to that) lift in rear

 

Does the dobinsons add lift to it? I’d like to retain close to factory height/rake.

 

These.

 

replaced my saggy rear with Alcans

 

Yes, they added about 2”. If you are going to get higher sprung leaf springs, I imagine it’s going to lift it some.

 

Road Master Active Suspension is the answer.
