[QUOTE="pbtjrlmrt, post: 1624308, member: 31858"] Don't listen to the sheeple that suggest Deaver/Eibach. Do yourself a HUGE favor and don't listen to anyone on this forum about suspension for anything other than brand. Call Deaver or Icon directly and ask to speak to a tech. Your suspension is personal and your use case is specific to you. ANYONE who comes out of the gate and tells you to go Deaver +3/+3 SD/HD Geiser is full of crap. I'm sure it worked fine for them but it may be completely terrible for you. If you do Geiser/Deaver to level the truck you will have an even harder time carrying a load without sag unless you stiffen the rear beyond reason. When I spoke to Deaver about my setup I wound up with a custom spring pack that cost less than the pre packaged stuff they offer. Call them and discuss all of your use cases and be realistic about your expectations then take their suggestion and perhaps cross check it with a local suspension shop. It really pays to do your homework. Suspension is one of the most personal mods you'll do to your rig and it pays to get it right the first time because having to redo it will be frustrating. Very few people on this forum understand suspensions...there are a few but you have no idea which one's you can trust. Call Deaver or Icon or both directly and go from there. [/QUOTE]
