Hey everybody. My wife and I are in the process of purchasing a new 3400RL. Will probably go do the PDI on Thursday of this week (CANT WAIT).

My question is this. We have a 2005 Dodge 2500 Short Bed. We have the hitch installed and are ready to go.

The payload on the truck is 2025lbs I believe and the pin weight of the 3400RL is 1975.

Does anyone have any experience with this set up, or one close to it? I am wondering if I need to order overload springs (such as Hellwig or SuperSprings).

I do not want the truck to sqwat when we are towing. Don't want to damage anything.

Any input you may have will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
