    Like the title says I need some advice on designing a suspension for a work truck setup. I will be adding the following products.

    Ranch Hand front bumper: 217lbs
    RH rear bumper:91lbs
    DiamondBack bed cover:125lbs
    6-7K lbs trailer
    200-500 lbs of gear in the bed.
    Possibly a winch in the front someday. I'm taking a stab in the dark and adding another 200lbs for one of those. If anyone has any experience with a similar setup please let me know how to tackle this. Thanks.

    X2 on the OME 613 up front. I ran super springs for years in the back. They definitely work well with a load. Air bags are nice but, more potential maintenance.
