I know on the motorhome, theres 8 main leafs and 4 overloads witch comes to 12 leafs. And motorhome total weight is 10,800 pounds, leafs do great, a lil rough but still got more play than with just 5 leafs and rubbers on the F250.
I guess if your gonna change axles in the futur for a dually, since you'll have the axle out may as well change leafs to, but till then personally I'd stay with the rubbers for now.

yeah ok.they do appear to be timbren overloads.
this is why this truck stays very level when i take turns.i wondered why it didn't lean into the corners.
this is a good thing,especially with the rack/tall loads.
also i dont get much sway even with wood stacked up and 8' wide.
your link doesn't work.but i googled them.they seem to be worth having for sure,so i'll keep 'em on there just for anti sway help alone.
thanks Ronnie.
