LOL the front has 9000lb springs and it could use a leaf or two with that 3300 lbs of detroit and roadranger, the rears have no helpers and I drove it around for a while with the 350 in it and seems fine... gonna have 85 gal fuel tank in the back (600 lbs) and the transfer case weights nearly 1000 lbs by itself too... i have to add the hydraulic pump and tank which is about 400 lbs... I have a LWB C50 Chevy for parts that I am making a matching tandem TAG trailer out of to haul around...
