Overload springs

How many versions are there of rear spring packs ? Mine has 2 main springs and 5 smaller over load springs.

Re: Overload springs

Not sure as to how many configurations there where, since in my mind I always figured that there were two versions... 1/2 and 3/4 ton.

Here is mine.

Re: Overload springs

Hard to tell from the picture. They look similar. Coil spring suspension has a different type

Do you have it listed on the SPID?
