Husky Leaf Spring Overload Kits

Does your truck ride like this?

If so...it can now ride like this!

Husky leaf overload kits are auxiliary leaves that bolt on the existing leaf springs. This gives a substantial increase in the spring rate automatically when the vehicle is loaded. They become progressively more active as a load is added and less active as a load is lessened ensuring appropriate support to maintain good, comfortable, stable, and level ride regardless of the amount of the load.

Progressive Leaf Overload Kit Benefits:

• Greatly increases load carrying capacity
• More stable loaded ride, less wander and wallow
• Easy bolt on installation
• Maintains comfortable empty ride
• Extends service life of other suspension components
• Smooth, quiet operation

You will find these parts in the "Suspension" category of the RockAuto catalog.

Avoid Holiday Accidents

Everyone looks forward to the cards, gifts, and treats of the holiday season, but November and December bring more than good tidings and cheer – They also bring crowded roads, highways and parking lots.

The rush to find the perfect gift for everyone on your list, combined with trips to the post office, parties, and in some locales, winter weather, can increase the likelihood that accidents will occur.

“Like roads and highways, parking lots and garages get crowded during the busy shopping season,” said Paul Ong of the CertifiedFirst® Network. “With additional vehicles and road hazards, the holiday season can be a time of unfortunate collisions.”

Here are some tips for the holiday season:

• Pay attention to the road and other drivers while traveling – don’t be distracted by decorations, sale signage or other festive holiday details.
• Listen to weather forecasts before heading out to shop.
• Plan for additional traffic in shopping districts.
• Observe traffic signs in parking lots and garages as you would on the street.
• Keep an eye open for the other shoppers and vehicles before exiting a parking space and when driving through garages and lots.
• Respect parking spaces reserved for the disabled and use only if a person with you is assigned a permit, or your car has special plates.
• Try to stay in the holiday spirit – leave enough room for other drivers to open doors, and be careful not to scratch or bump other vehicles in parking lots.
• Shop at off-peak times when there are fewer cars on the roads and in parking lots.

I'm a customer in Brazil and very satisfied with RockAuto! It's great to buy parts from you. Here in Brazil parts for foreign cars, especially American cars, are hard to find. But with the Internet, we can keep our toys rocking, thanks to RockAuto!

I was the third owner of this 1973 Chevy Impala Sport Sedan. I bought it through our local Ebay, and drove to Rio de Janeiro, 320 miles from my home in São Paulo, to pick it up. It has a 350 2bbl, a TH400 transmission, and only 60K miles on it.

Unfortunately I sold the Impala because I'm getting married. But I still have one American car, a 1988 Ford Taurus, that is very rare here in Brazil.

Regards,
Denis
