looking to get some helper springs..not sure on which brand or style to get. so looking for what you guys suggest. im looking for something farely easy to install....and looking for other options if you know of any relatively cheap.
 
Your Best and Easiest option would be Roadmaster active suspension. It's a little pricey (right around $350) but they're a non mantianance product that takes less than 1.5 hrs. to install.
 
u put procomp add a leafs in. took a couple hrs to install and raised the truck up a bit but its worth it when i haul trailers
 
^They're okay, but they're high mantainance. Just another thing to go wrong PLUS the rough ride
 
I dont like some of the air helper springs, especially the ones that you fill through a tire chuck filler thingy, had one on our chief truck for about a year or two, then the hoses became so dried out, and split from vibrations that the system wouldnt even hold air anymore.
 
So. Anymore options..ill hold off on this project till I find what's right. I mean the trucks lifted and the leafs are pretty flexed from that so..hopefully I get suggestions leading me to what's right.
 
Acts as a sway bar, anti-wrap bar, and helper spring kit. All wrapped up into one.

We have them on all of our company vehicles. I wouldnt think it would limit flex. They're coil springs so they flex with the suspension as it cycles. You gain about 1.5-2 inches of lift with them.

Sure, there's plenty of other options out there. But for ride quality, carrying capacity, and price, there's only a few logical options. Dont try to reinvent the wheel bro. :thumbup:
