SignUp Now!Composite leafs are still in R&D, with a few changed being made to the first prototype. The ride is stiffer, and the capacity is more, but 1000lbs is not even safe on stock leafs. Our capacity is only 400lbs give or take 15lbs, this is not gross this is payload. so basically you are overloading your truck and as a result our leafs are flat. The composites do have a larger ppi but it will only increase payload about 150-200lbs. The design of these leafs are not to increase the capacity of our trucks it is to increase the handling of the truck. With that said with stock or custom leafs you are running a risk loading that much into the back of an X.

Yes. Without a doubt these composite leafs are an upgrade to stock leafs. I haul up to 500-600 max. A normal day for me around 200-300 lbs. This is my work truck. With stock leafs loaded you knew it. With the composites no bottoming out. :driver:
pay load is 800 im not to far off that mark. but I am over that weight. so with the composits I should be right at the mark with the added 150 to 200 pounds?
Yes you should be ok, but with that said I do not suggest running that much weight with any leaf compostie or not! you will kill any leaf running that much weight in the rear consistantly.
Yes. Without a doubt.So would i be able to tow "safely"...
Lets go, what are we waiting on? So, I already have the SOS drop in the front, should I stick with it and get these rear leafs. My man concern is I what the handling to be better then stock, looks for me are an after thought.
Christopher
I believe that the group buy will be 2.25 rear drop. Shane can verify this.that looks pretty low what drop is that for the rear composite leafs.
The handling with these coil springs are without a doubt SUPER EXCELLENTE!! :top:What about the SOS front compared to the SS front end?
Christopher
how much do these help whell hop?
Im really getting tired of the 1.5 tire burnout
So when will these things be ready and can they be paired up with the dual traction bars?
