So what springs are most likely installed on my almost 10 year old 30RSO?
7000? Upgrade to 8000? Heading to Alaska in June and want to avoid suspension problems.
Thanks for the HD kit number. Got a link to the heaver springs?

Brad, your springs are most likely 6 leaf 3500 each as mine were. I went to 4000 7 leaf. Keep in mind that does not increase my CCC. I still have 7k axles. I may experience a little rougher ride but I did upgrade the single action OEM Chinese shocks to dual action Monroe's
