pay load is 800 im not to far off that mark. but I am over that weight. so with the composits I should be right at the mark with the added 150 to 200 pounds?

Composite leafs are still in R&D, with a few changed being made to the first prototype. The ride is stiffer, and the capacity is more, but 1000lbs is not even safe on stock leafs. Our capacity is only 400lbs give or take 15lbs, this is not gross this is payload. so basically you are overloading your truck and as a result our leafs are flat. The composites do have a larger ppi but it will only increase payload about 150-200lbs. The design of these leafs are not to increase the capacity of our trucks it is to increase the handling of the truck. With that said with stock or custom leafs you are running a risk loading that much into the back of an X.

thatks for answering the ? dallas

Yes. Without a doubt these composite leafs are an upgrade to stock leafs. I haul up to 500-600 max. A normal day for me around 200-300 lbs. This is my work truck. With stock leafs loaded you knew it. With the composites no bottoming out. :driver:

Yes you should be ok, but with that said I do not suggest running that much weight with any leaf compostie or not! you will kill any leaf running that much weight in the rear consistantly.

[Raversman]

looks good, its like they dont sag at all.

 

[CursedRacing]

Lets go, what are we waiting on? So, I already have the SOS drop in the front, should I stick with it and get these rear leafs. My man concern is I what the handling to be better then stock, looks for me are an after thought.

Performance wise, these rear leafs are 100x better then drop blocks, and for towing purposes. If your looking for a performance rear drop, this is the one to get. :top:

 

[x-runner kid]

that looks pretty low what drop is that for the rear composite leafs

 

[CursedRacing]

What about the SOS front compared to the SS front end?

I believe that the group buy will be 2.25 rear drop. Shane can verify this.

The handling with these coil springs are without a doubt SUPER EXCELLENTE!! :top:

I am just new at this. How does this compare to the SOS set-up?

 

[Shanes56]

Sittin Sic Coils are Coils that are designed to lower the truck and stiffen the ride as opposed to the SOS which raises the control arm (correct me if I am wrong) the coil is not changed. Both are a matter of preferance as to which is better. Read through a few post to get a better idea so you can make the decision for what you need.

[BlackXrunner05]

So when will these things be ready and can they be paired up with the dual traction bars?

 

[Shanes56]

Yes it will reduce wheel hope!

[Shanes56]

In about 3 weeks time, if nothing else needs to be changed on them. and yes they can be paired with traction bars, not the summit bars though.

So when will these things be ready and can they be paired up with the dual traction bars?
