How much have you towed with Hotchkis?

I was wondering has anyone actually towed anything with the 4" leaves, I got an email from Hotchkis saying "Same as stock". I love the look, but I still gotta use my truck as a truck.

Trust me, it is not "same as stock" if you tow with more that 500lbs tongue weight or have that much or more in the bed, you will be riding on the bumpstops.

I had to put a set of helper bags on mine. With the bags, I can tow what ever I want and she rides level.

I can add about 300-400lbs in my bed and it drops about an inch to a inch and a half. Over that and they max out fast.
So like said above tongue weight shoudn't be more than 500 with em.
