leaf springs

[Amstaff]

just wondering if taking the overload and 3 leafs out of the rear pack and 3 leafs out of the front would be ok. seems like the only problem would be axle wrap on the rear but im going to fab up some ladder bars to fix that. my goal is to lower it 2 inches and get a softer ride. thanks in advance

what are you going to do with the overloads?

[Amstaff]

[Jarrod B]

[Amstaff]

I'm guessing the overload L-bracket with the rubber bumpers?

[Jarrod B]

sorry. yes the L brackets that are on the frame for bumpers on the overloads like mentioned above.

im still a little confused my springs arent stock, but my truck is at home so when i get off work i will look and see if i can understand what you mean. im talking about taking the straight leaf(overload) and three leafs out just in case we are talking about different things or my terminology is wrong.

looks like this

on top of the overloads bolted or riveted to the frame.

oh ok i see what your saying, not the same thing, im talking about the 1inch flat leaf in the bottom of the spring pack. i think they do the same thing but in a different way.
