How many main leaves do you have? All the duallies I've seen have 6 mains, 1 lower overload, and the upper overload. Mine has 7 with a single unusable lower overload.

Mine is 7 total with upper and lower overload.

I'm fairly certain the 3500SRW trucks used the same setup as the DRW ones. The heavy 3/4ton is basically the same without the upper overload.

I can verify more when i'm at home, and can look at the EPC. I think the only way to get more leaves than 7 was to get a Chassis Cab truck.

There is some yellow spray on the overloads, so it looks like a GM leaf pack. The heavy half and light 3/4 have blue or green spray. I'm also missing that block that goes between the main pack and upper overload, but do have the forged upper piece unlike the stamped piece my half ton has.

Finally bought a bed. It's not perfect, but the bed sides are really nice. Gonna just get 2 new dually fenders for it and start fresh. The floor has a bunch of extra holes from a 5th wheel plate that installed on the goose, should have asked about getting that. . .

Also threw a Gatorback belt on the accessory side of the house and miraculously it ****. God it was embarrasing to drive around with no bed, Mickey Mouse taillights, and those airbags bouncing bolted to the top of my frame rail with the squeaking belt and ****** warm starting. At least I finally crossed one off the list. Went to a tuning shop yesterday to get some recommendations on the blower belt jumping off and they indicated that they've had no luck with multiple laser alignment tools and suggested I use a straight edge. Easy enough I suppose, I'll get the crank and blower in line for now and go from there. In the meantime I'm just wrapping up the blue truck so I can have it back as a DD so the dually isn't getting much attention until then. Then I strip the back off the truck again to put that DTM paint on that I got at Sherwin Williams for the frame. Something a little more durable than rattle can.

I should make a build thread for my half ton. I just Whippled it and it fjckjn kicks @ss! It's also getting a pulley really soon. I only make sea level power with the thing. That must change. I also did the marine intake and some bigger injectors. Gained a lot of confidence in the dually swapping over to the 411 and bigger injectors.

You should, I'd like to see it.

I would also be interested in what you did to run the 411.. I'll be doing a ram jet set up on mine and was thinking megasquirt vs. 411.
Sorry to thread jack [emoji12]
