    Hopefully others with more experience/knowledge Gelo will chime in.

    From doing some reading, seems like really on a leaf sprung truck a single compression bypass and air bumps should suffice. A lot of people do not need a rebound tube on a leaf sprung truck as the springs themselves allow friction to act as the "rebound". Whatever the valve stack in the shock body as long as you set that up properly, should be good enough.

    Again, hopefully other will chime in. A lot of misinformation floating around on the interwebz and the above info is some that I came across from doing some reading....correct or not, I found it searching lol

    Ha
    A double is fine on leafs , the smallest tube is normally close tho closed to give you a stuff bump zone anyways , u want the rebound tube to be able to speed up the rebound even more

    I would NOT be hucking that kit. Cruise it, at fucking best! Or tie a rope to it and use it as a boat anchor.
