so care to explain your reasoning here? im thinkin that if i was hauling something really tall and heavy, that i probably wouldnt be trying to corner overly hard. anything that actually fits in the bed, i still dont get it, as this suspension has a lower roll center than the stock leafs...translated into plain english.... its physically harder for the truck to have body roll with this set up than with the stock stuff. pretty hard to argue with physics, but im sure you will anyway.
as for load rating, i can say 90% certain that the leafs are less spring rate than the 550# coils. with the leverage placed on the frame where the coilovers are mounted, i wouldnt tow a heavy tongue weight trailer, but why would you do that with a 1/2 ton truck anyway?
i have addressed your concerns, if you have anymore intellegent questions, i would be more than happy to discuss them. if your just into trying to start a pissin match because this is different than what you think is "needed", then i really have nothin more to say.
