Clear concise install video!!!! Great job. Extremely important suspension upgrade when consistently hauling loads in truck beds.

[@thomaseichstaedt4988]

Part 2?

[@NXT_LVL]

It's an easy straightforward kit. I can easily name 5 well-known and classic brands that went the cheaper Chinese way. Probably why I can buy the EZ-550 kit for under $110 from Amazon. If its a worry, I'd swap the nuts and the U bolts to a non-Chineseium stainless. Can't hurt to get some grade 8s for suspension parts that will have tension and torque applied to them on the daily. Or swap it to a Ny-lock nut style rather than a jam nut

[@sneeekyphucker]

Where would you get those U bolts from? Do they have to meet a certain spec?

[@Captdal]

what about the load?

[@richrambo2207]

Didn’t see no results with the load on. Did the rear catch up either front end under load. In other words, more even keel

[@zoomjoo]

you're not supposed to unload the suspension?

[@247graphix]

Do you have an update on how it worked out? I have a 1st Gen tundra that might benefit from a similar install.

[@GwinnettLawns]

The springs have been perfect. No problem whatsoever they make a world of difference on the truck.

[@247graphix]

@@GwinnettLawns thanks for the info, I’ll be ordering soon.

[@jerrytalley802]

So do these make the ride stiffer when no loaded? I have a 2016 tundra that I love, and struggling to tow my camper that is 3,000 pounds under my towing capacity because my cargo capacity is sadly lacking. If I can’t find a workable solution, I can keep my truck. If not, have to get a 3/4 ton of some sort which I’m really dreading. So when not loaded, do these extra springs make the ride too stiff? I’ve seen some of these for a tundra that seemed to just sit on top of the existing springs? Thanks

[@GwinnettLawns]

No, you can’t even tell they’re there no ride quality difference at all.

[@eurotrashy2333]

Does it allow you to "safely" overload the payload? I have a k1500 and I want to run a camper

[@GwinnettLawns]

I dont think you should ever overload the vehicle. These will just reduce the sag that would occur when its near or at max capacity.

[@ctrc89]

Loosen the torsipn keys. It sits higher in the front than it should anyways.
