Expert Reply:

The extra leaf springs you are referring to are called overload leaf springs. The RoadActive Suspension Custom Leaf Spring Enhancement Kit part # RAS3611-HD will not work with overload leaf springs but the RoadActive Suspension Custom Leaf Spring Enhancement Kit part # RAS3611-CHD will as it is designed specifically for this purpose.
