San Diego, Computer Center Lines: 7 the remark that air shocks should be used when one wants to carry more weight than the auto was rated for is incorrect. contrary to popular belief the rating of the shocks does not determine how much an auto (car, truck, etc.) can carry, the rating of the axle(s) does. for example, if you have a half-ton pickup truck, don't think that you can carry more than it is rated for by installing some air shocks (or any heavy-duty ones).
