I know its not an answer to your question but have you looked at the Sensatrac Coil Over shocks?

I added them to by suburban to help with sag and they have worked great! Let me look for the post with the info on them

here they are

Monroe Shock/Strut - Rear
Part No. 58612

The Monroe® Sensa-Trac® load adjusting shock absorber with PSD (position sensitive damping) and the Safe Tech™ system combines our exclusive precision tapered grooves in the pressure tube with application engineered valving and Fluon banded piston to improve the ride, handling, and safety characteristics of the vehicle.

These units also include a heavy gauge calibrated spring for extra control and comfort. A new pair of Monroe Sensa-Trac load adjusting shock absorbers can assist in maintaining ride height when up to 1,200 lbs*. of additional weight is loaded. These units are ideal for light trucks that carry varying loads or tow trailers.

add-a-leafs could help too, and might be less expensive

i wouldnt go with the HD springs on a hoe, just get some new ones or the add a leaf system. with the heavier springs you are gonna get a harsh ride added to the short wheel base of the hoe

I would say go with an add a leaf as well. cheap and effective

Yep, I think those HD springs would make that backend bounce like a pogo stick that wouldnt even slow down for a good set of shocks.

Bags if ya got the money or a set of AAL's.

I saw a guy last week that bought the springs off a 2003 1500 for $25 and cut off the long spring to make it into a homemade AAL, dont know if I'd get that cheap, seems like the time expended getting everything together and the fab work would cost more than buying AAL's from a parts supplier.

Add A Leaf and Level kit for those who might not know

i would look into the coil over shocks, putting them on my truck as soon as i can
