Overload springs?
Does anyone have a picture of what the overload spring looks like? I have the "camper package" on my truck, but am not sure if I have overload springs or not.

Thanks.

Factory overload springs on that truck would look something like this, a single leaf with bump stops on the frame at both ends...
