How well did it ride whit the RV hooked-up?
What types of roads do you expect to drive on 75% of the time?
How you answer those questions will give you an idea if you may
need to do something or not.
I had one spring leaf removed and another one that was 0.002"
thicker installed on my F-250, leveled the truck (most Fords have
a slight nose high attitude from the factory), and increased weight
capacity by approx. 1,000#'s (not on the door sticker but ... it did).
Ride is stiffer but its only me and Rascal so ...
