...except that the leaf springs always had the same base load ratings as coil, and coil springs could actually be ordered from the factory with a higher load rating using the G50 option, and/or G60 which wasn't even available with leafs. If you wanted a "heavy half", it would be smarter to order coil springs.
The exception of course is C30 where coils were not offered.
