No, the overloads are on the top of the spring pack on trucks with a higher GVW. (pics of the overload springs in one minute)

Here ya go Ryan....

The overloads are the pack that's fanned out above the standard pack

the rear of the pack

Hope this helps!

yup, thats why i asked, i thought those might be the overloads. my truck doesnt have those.

ive just heard alot of people refer to the bottom leaf as the overload (i was looking at a thread on here of someone telling them to take out the bottom leaf (overload) to lower the truck an inch. hmmm

Both of my F100's have a 1/2 thick flat spring that is on the bottom of the leaf pack. On the lighter duty trucks this is the helper spring.
