    Hey guys, I appreciate everyone's input before about the maximum pay load.

    Now my last question in this regards, is how long can I keep the weight in the bed for? Does it matter? Can it potentially damage the shocks/tires etc...?

    I will be loading the truck up tonight and wont be able to take the old tile to get it trashed until tomorrow afternoon. Just want to make sure this isn't a bad idea.

    Thanks!

    Forever. Really. In a vehicle application, the number of cycles are more important than the load, especially since you hit the stops before overstressing the springs.

    Won't bother the springs. Probably not great for the tires if you're gonna be at load capacity for like weeks. They'll live, just probably not for as long.
