Susp: heavy half to regular half, should I convert it?

[cory d]

i have managed to get about half a ton in my short bed step side c10. thats really trying. 5 leafs handle that just fine. i have 3 now and it did just yesterday with like 800. really its a half ton so you dont need to put 2000 lbs of gravel in it. i would keep the coils and drop the leaf pack to 4 or 5. i know my crew cab just hops the rear over speed bumps. i dont think that is what people look for haha
