On my truck inbetween the spring pack and axle it has some 0-rate leafs ( acting as blocks ) and my question is do the mini leafpacks remove these along with the overload spring or do I leave them in when bolting the pack backtogether with the mini leafpack in place?

 

I took two of the three spacers out when I installed the Lorenz Mini Packs. I believe Kore and Carli suggest to leave all three in. All it does is have a little affect on the stance in the rear. If you want a little rake, leave all of them in (especially for towing). If you want it leveled take two of the three out.

 

I have two in my pack. Don told me you need to keep at least one in there.

 

I have a 4" lift on my truck, and had the 2" blocks in the rear that came with the lift. When I put on my Carli mini packs, I kept in the stock 2 spacers, and also cut down my overload spring to make another spacer. With the factory spacers, overload spacers and the mini packs it actually kept it right at what it was with the 2" blocks back there.
If you are just leveling the front, id do what Pauly suggested and put both back in and ditch the overload.


And FYI the new center pin bolts that come with the mini packs are plenty long to keep the overload as a spacer(in addition to the 2 factory ones), HOWEVER the U-bolts that come with them will be about 1/2" too short for that, but if you arent including the overload/2spacers youll be just fine.

 

What im doing is lifting the truck with the rock krawler 5.5" xfactor kit but I dont want my rear to ride like crap so I was thinking mini leafs along with thurens extended shackles. The mini leafs give 1.5" correct? I think thurens shackles are up to 1.5" so combine the 2 plus cut the factory overload into a 0rate add-a-leaf I would be at about the same height of the 4" block but with better ride.

 

 

Mine are like ^^^^^^^^^^^^, two spacers no overload. With that set up useing the CArli mini pak my rear is about 2&1/4 taller than stock.
