I'm swapping a V-8 to replace my 151 Iron Duke and I am adding a 10,000 winch. I have a 4-inch Superlift already. Would 2-inch add a leaves level the load?

Maybe not. Usually the add-a-leafs are designed for stock leaf springs. Adding them to 4-inch lift springs may do nothing for you at all due to the arch of the springs. Your best option may be to make up the difference with slightly longer than stock shackles up front.

I already have Currie Shackles. Would the springs I have now hold up? They are universals, not made for my weight.
