Anybody know what the "per inch" leaf spring rate is for a stock 2500HD at static position? 3500HD?


What do the overloads add?

Hopefully someone will answer, but if they don't, just measure the rear ride height, weight a few people, and have them stand in the bed right over the axle. Then just re-measure the rear ride height, and do the math. I need to do this soon myself, as I have removed a spring, and need to know when I get the right amount of tounge weight.
