Thread that breaks down different leaf packs?

Hey folks, I hope everyone is ready for the 3 day weekend!

So I am looking to put together my suspension setup pretty soon. I have my eyes set on King 2.5 front and rear with either Total Chaos or Camburg UCA. Now, I know what you guys are thinking. "he's going to ask what leaf pack is best?". Well, not really.

From reading on what's on the forum, different leaf pack offer different characteristics. What sucks is, I haven't found anyone who can answer that legitimately and without being biased. As you know, most guys/gals run or have only used/tried 1 brand and think it's the best.

I have tried searching but haven't found a thread that compares All Pro, OME, Deaver, Alcan and etc. Anyone know if there is one? If there isn't, anyone care to chime in? I would greatly appreciate it!

 

I agree, a comparison thread would be great. I ended up buying OME Dakar springs last week because of the price and free shipping. Of course, this week All Pro leafs go on sale for Labor Day with free shipping... For what I'm going to be doing with the truck, I'm sure they will be fine.

 

Just went through the same thing!! Think I'll like the darkars though!!!

 

Debating on going for the All Pro Leaf Pack sale but was originally thinking Dakars. Interested in how they flex, ride, and hold weight.

I've always read that Deavers sag fairly quickly so I don't even think about them. Haven't seen many reviews on Alcan either.

 

People always seem happy with the darkars. I have a friend who just completed a custom 86 Toyota truck. He got alcans and they are awesome. Can customize them any way you would like. Price isn't too bad either. For my needs, the darkars were the best bang for the buck. Allpro seems to have good reviews, but the expos are for serious weight!!

 

I'm not too sure what route to go. I want something that can handle desert speed, but also be able not to have too much "sag" when hauling my track bike out to the race track. Only read people going one route or the other.

 

Who here has upgraded rear leaf pack but doesn't carry any weight constantly? Looking to hear some feedback and etc.
