Yes,I understand that with payload and I would guess with the correct psi it would work well with towing as long as its not slamming the stops.going to look in to this a little more.

That is correct with these types of bump stops, you don't want them to slam into the bump stop. These are acting similar to an additional absorber. If the bump stop is bottoming out, then that force is being transferred into your frame, as with any bump stop. And with a force large enough can cause damage.

Not sure that you want to be sitting on the bump stops when towing.
Like I said I'm not sure, so if anyone has info on this please comment.

Ask yourself this question. What does an air bag over load system do ?

So what would this do to a Stage 4 with HD springs???? Just curious is all.

I'm pretty sure the RPG truck is stage 4. Not sure about HD ? But it sure would stiffen up the rear. You may not need to run 200 to 250 psi maybe less in the long air bumps ?



Hey Jarret, what about hooking the bumps to an in cab control that is hooked to a nitrogen bottle so one could adjust on the fly "Now that would impress me". Just an inside joke there ! Remember lil J

This is a great idea, but like others, my wish list is growing at a rapid pace; now if my pay would increase at rapid pace and then I could be at your door steps waiting for you to open for business!

First, I know nothing about the National Springs specs. How do the load ratings compare between them, stock and the HD set?

Second, what kind of a towing increase over the stock 6k or 8k towing capacity, could we expect using the 4" bump stops?
