Mono leaf is just one big leaf!! Weigh capacity is really minimized. Go for the multileaf springs. The leafs are arched to achieve height and weight carrying retention.

I have a set of lowered leafs. Four leafs per side. Install coming soon.

My truck is 4/6 with 2.5 spindal & 1.5 coils. Hanger and shackel combo on the rear. 255/60/R15 tires. Measuring from the ground to the center of wheel well, 27.5-28" on three corners. One corner is nearly 29". It drives me nuts.

Measure first, then decide which drop you want and how to achieve it. I want one more 1" all the way around!!
