Pierson Park Road (Alcan leaf pack test)

Got my full leaf pack from Alcan put on a few weeks ago and decided to do a little wheeling today. Spent the weekend in Estes Park, Co and found this little (narrow) trail to the south. Nothing really technical: just steep and loose rock. Found a little berm to show a little bit of Alcan flex.

Went 2.5" on the leaf pack...





Some stuffage....





Still has a little flex left...

Compared to what I was running (AC coils and shackles), it rides like a luxury car. I really am happy with the Radflo / Alcan setup.

Thanks! I "think" I'm almost done with modding for a while. After my Procomp wheels get here of course.

I'm thinking 8 leafs??

I got the KMA around last August, after my "sliding down a hill into a tree" accident.


Here's a few more pics...

truck looks good as always but i'd take that sway bar off... trust me, it will do much better on and off road. it might lean a tad more but it will let the C/O's do their job and give you a ton more flex up front

It is gone... that was the first thing I did after putting the Radflo's on.
