Does Installing RAS Leaf Spring Enhancement RAS3611-SLHD On 2020 Ford F-350 Affect Ride Quality?

Question:

Roadmaster Active Suspension asks us to remove the UPPER overload in order to install it. What do we lose by removing the UPPER overload spring? Does RAS make up the difference? Also, will this stiffen up my ride? I dont need to increase my load ability, just want to add to my sway control, traction and cornering ability... but I dont want to end up with a super stiff ride either. Any help?

The RoadActive Suspension Custom Leaf Spring Enhancement Kit - Heavy Duty # RAS3611-SLHD you were looking at is designed for trucks with the upper overload spring and will include everything needed to remove it on your 2020 Ford F-350.

The # RAS3611-SLHD will basically act as a better overload spring meaning it will not ruin your unloaded ride, and will actually improve traction, reduce sway and body roll, and eliminate axle wrap so you will have a much more enjoyable loaded and unloaded ride.

The # RAS3611-SLHD offers up to 3000lbs of load leveling support when towing a trailer or carrying a heavy payload, but you can limit this when installing the system by tightening the spring to the lesser amount.

I included a video of the # RAS3611-SLHD for you to take a look at.
