I wanted to get some advise from everyone up in the NWC about how long their leaf springs have lasted.
I installed the FullTraction traction kit last June. I have wheeled it long and hard. I also Park in a slanted driveway, so its always sitting pointed up hill. I love the FT kit. Has preformed great.
I have added a lot of weight to my rig the last couple months. Cage, Rockers.
I also have a winch, rear tire carrier.
I noticed at Noob fest, I was really sagging in the back. Granted I was very loaded down. I had a full cooler, all my recovery gear, and some parts and tools in the back. In some of the pictures, you can see that there is only a couple inches from my tire to the rear fender.
My rear leaves ride great. They Flex Great. I am just concerned I may be stacking to much weight on them. Not Sure.
I figure I would ask those of you that have wheeled for years, how long you usually keep the same leaves? I would think they would last a couple years. Perhaps I am expecting to much. We all wheel in the same trail/obstacle types.
