    He was running allpro expos for a long time. Not sure if he has changed them to something else though.

    thanks guys! I have roughly 500 lbs daily and have been doing a ton of research for springs... right now I'm torn between the Allpro expo 2.0's and deavers... similar in price/capabilities...

    Honestly just go with a custom pack from deaver. It'll be a little more but totally worth it because they'll last a lot longer if you are daily carrying that much weight.

    Mine were pretty worn out when I sold my truck. If I had another leaf sprung truck a custom pack is the only way to go. All pro's and Dakars will wear out quicker especially if you carry weight

    Hey Sean, you have had an enclosed trailer and an open trailer now... Do you prefer the open trailer over the enclosed?

    When you're out exploring without the trailer do you carry around a spare? If not, what would you do in the case of a puncture that can't be plugged?

    Wanted to bring up an old post of yours: when you trimmed the bushwackers, you removed the inside lip that bolts to the inner fender, correct? If so, how did you mount them? Bolted through?
    Thanks,
    Matt

    He doesn't have the truck anymore and isn't on the forum anymore.
    Good reference though.

    Since Pelfreybilt is no more you should check out BAMF (Bay Area Metal Fabricators)
