WSI HD and SD progressive leaf pack reviews

Looks like I may be going wsi just the info I was looking for.

I'm resurrecting this thread to ask about payload increase for HD springs, I have them in my garage and might have to tow one raptor with the other. What's the payload increase with these WSI HD leafs?

There is no payload increase, you are still bound by fords numbers.

From a placard and legality perspective I'd agree; however research shows that you can increase the payload with things like add a leaf or hd springs. At the end of the day I'm going to have to tow one raptor with another. So I need to mod accordingly

I occasionally tow more than the specs allow for. But instead of doing a lot of suspension mods that are only used once in a while, I bought a trailer that was a little longer in the back half, so that I can place my towed equipment a bit farther back over the axles of the trailer, eliminating some of the actual load placed on the truck. Sure, I lose a little of the 'comfort' associated with having more weight on the truck, but with help from someone on the ground, I can perfectly place the right amount of weight on the truck's rear half to keep it up off the bump stops. I never liked having the front end of the truck up too high, anyway, especially with these trucks. I just can't drive as fast as usual due to the trailer getting a little squirrely under heavy breaking and going down hill.....

How is the ride with the hd and drop shackles with a light load in the bed. I plan to have about 250 in the rear inlcluding my spare, hope I don't lose anything going with a drop shackle

Survey says you need about 500lbs in the back to get into the sweet spot.

That's what I thought, guess I'm gonna have to come up with ways to add some weight

I only have a Tire Gate with a 37" tire with the HD's. I have 0 problems with the ride and don't mind it at all.

That being said when I had the WSI 4k rack it was a better ride.

I just installed the WSI HDs, agree with everyone, the truck rides so much better. Only issue is vibration. Once I replaced my worn BFG's, the vibration got much better, but there's still some vibration from 0-10mph.
