What have you guys done for rear suspension?? I know its been asked a thousand times but can't make up my mind!! Air bags seem the easier option and simple to fit?? Changing to heavy duty leaf springs can make the ride horrible when empty??

What about " helper " leaf springs ? I fitted them to my last truck . They only come into play when the load goes up .

I think it was Midland Springs but any of the spring suppliers on the net will do them . They are a half length leaf with a greasable roller  .
