My question is similar to Mtmuleys but i need to bring the back end of my 2500 series GMC service truck up to level. Being a plumber, i keep full trays of black, galvi, and copper fittings, and also full trays of the different sized nipples. i also carry a full sized pipe threading machine(heavy) and the hand tools for the same job, plus several hundred pounds of different kinds of pipe in the bed and on the rack, about all that i would need to do a basic service call to most any home...lots of weight that has the back end of my nice rig drooping maybe 3".
I've heard that there are places that can swap out leaf springs with a higher arched set and i've been told that air bags would also do the trick. Even with all the weight i'm toting around, i don't really notice the weight on the rig other than the rearward rake.
What would be the best way, and most cost effective other than carry less weight , to remedy the rake situation? Opinions on Air bags also welcome! Thanks!!
