I watched kyotas unload and almost went over..when they unload,,they unload fast..they just feel unstable off camber to me..
How tight were the shackle bolts? Were they torqued to spec? I torqued all the bolts to 75 ft lbs.
Mine barely unload to 1/2 way if anything. I have had mine on some muddy steep down hills they have yet to completely unload on me.
I am not too happy with them since I think they don't unload enough. The flex is ok I kinda wish I had more.
I may yank em off and just do a 3/4 ellipical setup and just u-bolt the leaf for the street.
I am running the 2000 silverado 63" leaf's so they are 2 thick leaf's and a overload the only differnce between these and the older chevy springs is they are thicker and the front spring bushing is 5/8" instead of 9/16" they give about 3.5" lift with a 6" shackle.
I plan on running them for a little while this year. They don't seem too bad.
The ride isn't bad since I have some actual weight on the back of my truck the flatbed makes them ride good.
However if you run longer than a 6" shackle the ride will be harsh and your pinion angle will suck too.
With as much cash as I spent on this setup I think I would have been better off ordering up some cheapo downey 3" leaf springs and a 1.5" shackle lift.
It probably would have saved me $150
