Any idea what capacity will the leaf pack becomes after removing each leaf.
original is +660, What is the capacity after removing leaf 5?
I removed 3 and 5, There was 0.5 lift and the ride was not that great.
So I tried removing 5 and 7. Now there is no lift at all from the leaf unloaded ride is okay and ride with passengers is not that good.
I can push the X with my hands and it sways a bit. I am putting back 7 and add more weight to the truck and call it a day.
I just want to know how much weight do I need to add with these springs to keep it glued to the road. I also have 1.5 inch lift shackles, so it might affect the effective spring rate.
The below photo is with 2 leafs removed. IMO the pack arch is a bit on the flatter side. Shackle angle also a bit steep.
