Seems odd that nobody publishes a capacity for the Toyota rear packs.
#90-113 for 79-83 PU
And #90-115 for 84-88 PU

Anyone have any weight capacity on these?

I need an offset spring with short side around 20", these seem perfect but may be too much capacity.

Would most likely remove the overload leaf so would that change capacity at all if they're too high a capacity?
 
You seem to be right and I can't find anything either.

What's your application for the springs?
 
Stretching front WB of a CJ with a TBI 350 in it.

Already has motobilt full width kit so the frame side mount is in front which is why I can't just run flipped waggy or XJ packs.

A pack with a 19" short side would be perfect and these are the closest on the info I have but nobody has any capacity specs.

I've called 3 manufacturers, parts stores, even gave Toyota dealer the factory part number and they didn't have any info either.
 
Well FWIW I'm running 7 rear toyota springs on the front of my truck. 81 pickup with a v6, winch, and a tube bumper.

I generally use spring works OEM replacement numbers as a ballpark. They don't list anything for 90-113 but do list "Leaf Spring Capacity: 1,050 Ibs" for 90-115:

Awesome... they do list the 90-113 but no capacity stated.

But the free arch is higher than the 115s and those are 200 pounds higher and over an inch taller free arch. Probably use the 115 mains and bastard that with the YJ packs to get something

that would be my recommendation, the Toyota rear pack alone will be insufficient IMO.

Not sure my 2 cents is worth anything but I'm running an 89-95 bastard pack with 5 leaves (primary/secondary are aftermarket replacements) in the front of my 4cyl 85 pickup and it could use 1-2 more

Idk if they'd be insufficient since they're 200 pound higher capacity with over an inch more free arch than the 840 pound YJ packs in it now.

Plus I just hollered at our local toyota guru, Mick Henson and he said they usually use those and bastard pack them for front stretches as well so it's the best option I see.

He's got a set of the OME 2" packs that I may go get but I don't need anymore height, gotta ditch shackles and put in slider boxes to get it set down 2-3 inches as it is now.
