Hellwig Overloads?
Thinking about finally adding overloads springs to the old K20 and looking at Hellwig Load Pro LP-25 (2500# bolt-ons). My truck is a light-duty K20 with add-a-leafs in the spring pack, but it sags too much with a heavy load. Anyone have comments / complaints about these or anything similar?

Re: Hellwig Overloads?
I put a set on my truck and they helped. I believe they were the 2500 ones too. I haul big loads of firewood and the truck would sway and be hard to steer but the helper springs helped with that. easy to install and can take them right back off if I don't want them and nothing permanent changed. that's my $.02

Re: Hellwig Overloads?
I used them on an f350 dually when I was car hauling they worked great although I had the 5000lb set. The truck rode horrible when empty but rode like a caddy with a load. I'd do it again and plan to on my 71 burb 4x4.
