First gen springs for 10100gvw?

[R.E. Miller]

I have a first gen and I tow with it. It looks like somebody removed the stock overload springs and snubs. Does anyone know if a w-350 1992 dually should have overloads at this rating? And where can I buy some to replace the old ones? Thanks

My dad has an 80 model One ton Crew Cab dually that does not have overloads. It does have one hell of a spring pack though. A few years ago i hauled 3500lbs of scrap metal in it and it set level still!

Thanks Bad340fish, I'm going to buy a 20' enclosed Pace I'll see how it sits with that on it. One of my good buddys around here does restoration work on cars and boats, his 440 car has a tag CUDAMAN, I love dodge sounds like you have a nice pair #ad

My previous truck was a D350 chassis cab dually with the 10,100lb GVWR. It had huge leafs and overloads in the back, stock.

I had a '92 D350 Club Cab with 10,100 GVWR and no overload springs either. The truck was built in March 92 in Mexico.

I towed a smaller 5th wheel than I now have with a hitch weight of 1700 lbs and it lowered the rear bumper about 4 inches.

i have a 93 4x4 duelly w/ factory
overload springs not many have it.
look under hood for option list
its on bottom side of hood.
mine says optional hd rear axle springs
lists weight # ,( did not go look at now)
i put a 4000lb lance on it and still higher
in back then front sits,
if you want them , i bet dealer sells
spring perch mounts (factory) new
spacers( not sure if needed)
springs try good spring shop.
problem w/ just adding more springs is all
weight is one one set of perchases
while a gd overload set has new seperate
spring perch's ( spelling)
good luck ps if you need i can look up
weight # and code on option list

I pulled a 24' Vintage trailer loaded with a mustang with my dads 80 model, about 7K total behind the truck. Had the car pulled up so far the front wheels were in the middle of the side door. Truck set level still. With my 99 we can only put the nose of the car up to the door until the truck sags and sits on the overloads. You don't need a mouthpiece to ride in mine though lol #ad
