What do you suggest?

Hello all,

I just bought a Pelfrey rear bumper with the swing arm option.
I was wondering what leaf spring set up do you all recommend?
I know once I put that bumper on its going to sag the rear end.

Current set up is Icons suspension Stage 5.

 

Do you haul anything?

 

What leafs do you have back there now? I would want something nice to complement the stg 5 $$

 

Dakars FTW.

All pro expedition pack also an option

 

Sorry yes I do haul things like firewood, and some other heavy things. Right now the current sitting position of the truck is the back is lower then the front ( without the bumper installed yet ) I am planning on getting a front bumper but not yet.. No $$$$

 

Dakars or air bags

 

All Pro Expo pack, without a doubt.

 

I knew you would know brother. I'm just a little 3 leaf Progressive Leaf pack kind of guy

 

With a big heart

 

I try sir, now back on topic

 

DAKARS

 

Another vote for Dakars. Have the anti friction pucks added before install at a spring shop so they don't squeak. I've read of a lot of AP Expo packs flattening out and sagging in a short time. I haven't heard of Dakars doing this.

I have Dakars and air bags - the ultimate setup.

 

This man is the shit^^^^^^

 

Kiss ass

 

Hay man!!!!!!!!!!

 

Dakars with that rear weight will be taxed.. so you're looking at a full pack plus AAL. Everybody I know with that much ass end weight is running Expo's, and they hold up great and handle the weight better than Dakars. Lot of guys running similar setups in my region, Expo all the way for that kind of need.

 

Did I mention I ave Dakars with the AAL - and air bags, of course. Way overkill actually. I haven't been able to make it squat, even with the bags aired down. I can get it level with a full load of firewood in the trailer (bed has about 400 pounds in it at all times), but it wont squat.

 

Damn. Dakars, AAL, and bags?

Kinda gives me a payload boner.
