Hey all, does this seem normal for the rear to sag this much when weight is added? I feel like just leaning into the rear hatch will make the rear sag quite a bit.

Kit: Ironman 2" Nitro gas Constant Load 440-880 lbs.

The video below is of me sitting on the rear hatch, I weigh 185 lbs. Also to note, I have removed 2nd and 3rd row, vehicle otherwise completely empty.

I put in the 0-440 springs and immediately took them out and put in 2863’s. I was running 2860’s before I put in the Ironman lift kit. I’ve got an ARB front bumper, sliders, loaded drawers, RTT and lots of gear when I head out. Not a DD so I care more about how my truck behaves when I go off-road.

The 0-440 spring didn’t give me much lift which was my main problem and even less when loaded up. I probably should have gone with the 440-880 springs from the get go, I already had 2863’s sitting in the garage so I just threw those in. If I went and sat on my tailgate I’m guessing it would do the same thing yours is doing.

Having said all that I think your springs are fine. How does it ride? Many more with way more knowledge than me will weight in I’m sure.
