So, I've read through a ton of posts about the soft suspension in the back, and people's solutions for this. Currently I have a 200lb ARE cap on the bed of the truck, and I'm looking to add a Decked system as well (another 220ish lbs). I had some serious squat when loading the truck up for a cross country trip and I'm trying to mitigate it. Airbags seem to be popular, just not for constant loads, so I've been looking at the Deavers. Here are my questions:
+2 SD - For guys that have a constant 400ish pounds in the bed, have they solved the squat while maintaining a factory type ride?
+2 HD - Is this going to be the best option? Don't want to upgrade and have the ride be harsh or kick my ass.
Do I need to install a bump stop kit with the Deavers, or can I just do a straight swap and achieve what I need? I don't want any lift, just to maintain as close to factory ride as possible without the shit load of sag that I get when I want to go hunting or on a trip with full coolers. If I decide not to do the Decked system and it's just the 200lb cap, are the SD springs going to be enough for a few hundred pounds of gear a few times a year? Thanks.
