Default 3 Leaf Progressive Add A Leaf Kit

I was looking on Wheelers and saw they have this kit that lifts the rear of your truck 1.5" and in doing so it adds 3 more leafs and takes out your overload leaf. http://www.wheelersoffroad.com/tundraaal.htm

I was wondering if this is more for increased payload or will it make for increased articulation, or both? Does anyone have experience with this kit or know more about it?

I'm looking for more "twickage" in the rear and i was thinking adding more leafs would do that, kinda like the Deaver set up, but less the $$. The Deavers look like a good way to go, but I sometimes have 3 dirt bikes in the bed along with gear, and i think the Deavers are not for payload purposes. Anyways any info would be great, that modding bug has come around again.

I think it is more for lifting the rear end without making it to stiff, thats why they have you take out the overload spring.

I have deavers and also have to carry 2 dirtbikes and gear some of the time. The deavers will hold 2 bikes and gear, but will hit the bump stops sometimes...not bad though.

For everday driving there is nothing better than a Deaver G57 pack. It rides like a caddy.
