    explain how they destroyed the leafs?
    just a FYI if they drove it once and you think they are now destroyed, they were most likely like that before.





    from what i have seen i have only seen leaf packs that have lift associated to them

    that won't destroy a leaf pack unless the trailer had an 800+ pound tongue weight or something crazy. I pulled 6500 lbs from norther VA to mid FL and back without issue. and that's in addition to all of the other towing of that saim boat and trailer.

    TSB pack, Remove overload to lose some height and put in some airbags. Just a thought. Bags are cheap and TSB springs can be had on here fairly often.

    Best bet is probably OMD leaf packs, he can build them for you or he can advise you on how to build them, they're very custom, you can build for ride, weight and ride height.

    just throwing this out there, there are shops who specialize in repairing leafs if you don't want to buy a whole new pack.
