How’s the ride compared to factory. Also how much does it raise the bed again, compared to factory. Your right about the add a leaf. They don’t work. I have one. Now I have the Sumo springs. They work but I think I’m better off buying new springs altogether. Just being honest. The man made logical sense to do it right the first time. I’m not paid btw. I’m looking into these. 😊
The ride is very good. We have estimated lift on our site listings depending on how much load you have. Sumo Springs can support weight, but also sharply limit your suspension travel
A trailer with 700lb tongue weight will likely be around 1,000 lbs added to rear axle weight/leaf springs, as the hitch ball is about 4' behind rear axle centerline, it's an overhung load. Weight is transferred off front axle to rear axle. My recommendation would be HDs, but even MDs will be significantly better than stock springs. Check fitment notes on our site listing for approx lift height
Worth every penny they ride nice, I’ve tried doing add a leafs before and they don’t work well, medium duty’s ride great on my access cab with a camper shell and drawer system in the rear.

Which one should I get if I have 700 pounds on tongue and squat ?

Those springs are pricey
You can spend 1/3 or 2/3 on bandaid options, and still short yourself on performance.
