R there any downsides of these zero rates? I understand they become part of your leafpack and the benefit of moving axles forward and back. Thanks

None. As long as theyre used right theyll never cause a problem.
I've got them in the rear for leveling purposes. Mostly street machine, no issues.
I have been running a set on the front of one my trucks for close to 10-years, and I have had no problem. Just make sure you install them with the curved edge side up against the spring. I have seen a couple of people on this web site install them backwards with the sharp side up against the springs. The sharp side can cut into the springs and crack them. Also, make sure after you install them to re-tighten your U-Bolts several times because it takes about 100-miles to completely seat in a new set of U-Bolts...even though somebody is going to say I am full of crap because it only takes one tightening of the U-Bolts and done.

I won't say that since my fricken rear axle fell off when the U-bolts loosened up.
Talk about something to make you paranoid for a while.
Yikes!!I won't say that since my fricken rear axle fell off when the U-bolts loosened up.
