    I will be adding steel sliders and skids, and an aluminum bumper without winch, so I'm thinking I need to go to 750# rated springs.

    My understanding is the 3rd gens came stock with 700+ rated springs. Right now I've got the Icon springs that came with the stage 4, which I think are rated at 620 or 650. I'm having some rubbing with my 285s, and was planning to swap my springs with some 14" 700#. Should I go now go with the 750 rated due to added weight, or is that too much?
