My F250 has a special rear suspension option that puts an overload leaf in there. I also have a pair of AirRide 5000 air bags with the Schraeder valves on the license plate.
Since I tow my fifth wheel seldom, using an air tank to put a couple of puffs in the bags is no big deal. If I towed often and far, the compressor would be the way to go.

Miss information, If you don`t know don`t say anything you could miss lead someone and cause them problems.
FRirst one: This is 100% incorrect your insurance will pay for your stupidity in a accident. This is one of reasons for insurance. They will pay up to the limits of your policy.
SEcond: When is the last time you saw a camper pulled over and being weighed? 42 years of camping ...never. Any state Dot dose not pull over campers and randomly do a weight checks. This is why you don`t have to pull into weigh stations and get weighed like trucks do.
ThiRd: Sumo springs don`t level a camper or truck. They help when you have over loaded your truck and it sags ( over loaded ) add leaf springs up to your axle rating, buy a bigger truck. If you have put them on your camper because you have over loaded your springs and it is sagging you need to reduce the the weight you carry.Last edited by bshgto; 09-09-2021 at 07:46 AM.

I personally have not purchased them yet but that are on my Christmas list! They DO NOT increase your capacity but they do level the load your are already carrying!!! Curious what others think and if anyone has used these.2020 GMC Sierra 2500 AT4 6.6L Gasser

Not sure about changing out the entire leaf pack but as Bamaman has stated, F250s can be had with the upper overload leaf. The brackets for the "bump stop" should be bolt on. By adding the overload, this might help with sag once weight is put into the bed. If you go the overload spring route, you can change the engagement bushing a taller one to have them engage sooner if needed but not touch when unloaded.
