I've got a 2000 CC with the HD suspension on it and I've carried about 2500#
of paver bricks no problems. The rear sagged a tad but never bottomed
out... The load was evenly distributed across the entire bed area though.
I've also heard stories of people carrying around 1500-1800 # with the
hotchkis springs as well. I'd get those springs checked out! Either that
or the crate weighed way more than 850# or they put it too close to the tail
end of the truck.
