    Really hard to say since everyone has there
    own taste and preference. But I would go with the HD. If it’s to stiff for your liking you can always remove a leaf and be back to where you are now. Do you not like lift or ride with the medium and your current setup?

    Got it, then I stand by going with the hd. Gives you room to add more weight if needed and if you don’t like it you can always remove a leaf and be back to a medium duty. Also if you do go that route, at least with mine use different isolators. The yellow ones that came with mine squeaked like a mofo. Have been nothing but quiet since I switched those out

    Finally got the dual swing-out on. Local New Mexico builder @STravis hooked it up! Couldn’t be more happy with how it turned out!

    I've seen this 4R around Santa Fe! I knew it had to be someone on the forums somewhere lol. Incidentally I think I saw it following your truck, which makes sense. This was back with the rtt setup I believe. Insane build man!
