Havock's New PRG Leaf Packs and Bilsteins!

HavockWK · 06-28-2005, 10:09 AM

Once again PreRunnerGreg has come through with some excellent products for our Titans! I recently installed his new Deaver leaf packs and rear Bilstein shocks and now my Titan rides better then I had even imagined! Thank you again PRG for all you do!

Damn you! Can't wait for mine to get here! Hopefully I'll have them in time for my 1700 mile (round-trip) to Destin, FL. The round-trip is assuming I do not become shark bait.

Oh sweeeeeeet sweeet vacation.

They will definitely help you enjoy that long ride!

Have fun on your vacation!

I ended up with about 2" of lift from the leaf packs. I am quite sure I was experiencing some spring sag before I started because I should have had 1" of rake, yet I was level. PRG says they should lift the average Titan about 1.25" - 1.5".

As for off road, the little bit of rough terrain I have run through, they have been excellent. The other night I was tearing around a large contruction site where they had only done some dirt work and they rear end handled excellently over the bumps, ruts and through the donuts!

I can't wait to get my rears on to compliment my 2" front PRG. I really don't get to tow much more than 5-6000lbs regularly so I may not worry about the spring capacity of the Deaver leaves. However, if it all comes down to it, a friend of mine keeps hundreds of leaf springs from different vehicles to tune leaf packs. I'm sure if I needed more capacity he could shape and fit a spring if I need more capacity.

Havok... how are the springs on spring wrap (axle wrap)? I would imagine they control axle rotation much better.

The axle wrap is noticeably reduced. I cannot say for certain that it is gone, but the truck definitely feels better when getting on it from a stop or slow roll.

Awesome.
