Thats a sweet ride you got there Dave K. Does anyone have pics of the 285-75 16 with out a lift? IM curious to see if they look stuffed. I have my torsion bars cranked and i have added leafs to the rears so im not sitting stock but im not lifted by any means. My 265-75 16's dont look at all close to as big as yours did in those pics.

Twintips,
I'm thinking about getting a set of those add-a-leafs. Do you like them? Do you have any pictures of your truck with the add-a-leafs? Are they hard to install? How much lift did they give you? Did they make the ride stiffer? And finally, what brand did you go with? I know, it's a bunch of questions. I just want to make sure I know what I'm getting in to. Thanks, Dave K.

Dave K,
I really like the add a leafs. I didn't go with any praticular brand. I bent my springs off roading and had a shop that specialized in springs for big rigs bend mine back and then make me the add a leafs. They did make my truck stiffer but not by a lot. I only got about and 1.5 lift and i have my torsions maxed out so i think im sittin about 2 in the front and and 1.5 in the rears. I do a ton of hauling with her and those springs help a lot. She doesn't squat like a stock on would. Iwant to put bags in there next. Either that or a small suspension lift. Like 4 inches. I would deffintly recomend putting leafs in. Iwould never go back. I didn't install them but they cant be that hard. I would have done it but the rear end was already apart at a local shop so i just had it done.
I will try and post som pics of it on here soon.
