Question. what about zero rates front and rear? any problem with this? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

For someone needing that extra inch to clear your tires say you 4" lift guys with 35's..looks like zero rates front and rear would help out with wheeling with 4" lift and 35's.

they bolt to the leaf pack so basically a leaf without adding RATE so it should be safe unline blocks in the front.

wonder why they don't put out say a 2" zero rate? that would sell big time too!

You can put 1" zero rate in the front as it ties into the spring with the center pin. Anything larger than 1" coupled with the forces of steering on the front axle would just be unsafe....like lift blocks in the frontend.
