The best survey of type is Australia.

The WORST POSSIBLE leaf arrangement is what is seen in US. Fundamentally unstable.

Leafs are cheap. That’s the reason used.

Torsion outlasts it. Leafs need rebuild almost continually. Someone says they don’t, tell them to disassemble. The wear is always there. Dozens of wearing parts per wheel. A Tosiin AXLE has about seven all told.

Slow miles offroad DONT trump miles at highway speed.
