Yes I have is set with the 1mm disk (Minumim Tension), for spring spacing and I raised my truck in the rear 1.5". You can go 2mm and I think 3mm if you need.Minimum. We are on our way to TN from GA.. My wife is driving and stated she cannot believe and stated she can not belive the difference.
Most 1 ton trucks come with the factory overload spring, which need to be removed for installation of RoadActive Suspension. Removing the overload allows proper fitment and ensures the system works as intended. The RAS® Mega-Duty kit will reduce squat and provide significant improvement vs the factory overload spring.
I wonder as well, why they would send me a text message with links to these suggested procedures totalling over $10,000 without even the slightest hint of how they arrived at these being necessary.

For them it is a problem of $$$$ and compliance. To cover both they have to lie from the heart.
Government wants low waste oil numbers so the bar needs to be very low on contamination to met that requirement.
Consumer wants cheap maintenance (perceived cost). Again requiring a low bar.
OEM wants high margins at a cost effective warranty rate and lots of repeat customers. More low bar.
Filter manufacture wants the same thing the OEM wants. See the pattern?
Consumers are fickle and also want perfection requiring a HIGH bar. Inconsistent with all of the above.
Consumers can be, when the put their minds to it, inquisitive, love winning arguments which requires some useful information to be available to support them. And this is where it gets sticky and the lies begin.
Information needs a solid well grounded point of reference if we are to compare in a useful way. There is a standard for this. ISO 4548-12. This standard sets the particle size at a specific Beta ratio and darn few are faithful to its intent.
If they don't state the test method they change the particle size or the Beta ratio to hit a perceived favorable standard. They obscure the information in a way as to prevent direct comparisons leaving the consumer with one method. UOA's with an ISO 4406 test result. Pricey and not allot of labs willing to do the work. Lobby work happens everywhere, not just at the seat of government.
