I was wondering how much articulation I would lose if I switched the camel back suspension on the rear of my xm818 to front five ton leaf springs? And before everybody says don't bob the truck trust me I'm not planning to. The reason I want to switch the suspension is two parts. 1) I like the simplicity of the front leaf spring set up, and 2) really, really want to put the dual 49's on my truck and if I use front leaf springs they'd be under the frame as oppose to on the side which would allow me to pull the tires in and still be street legal. I know people have done this before with bobbed trucks so it's not completely unheard of. Just was wondering how much it would affect the offroad capability of the truck because it's always function with me before form. Any feedback would be appreciated and it's not that I don't like bobbed trucks but I figured I got the 6x6 because I wanted 6x6. Also would 5 ton or 2.5 leaf springs be better?
