Would ooking for some opinions on options for rear leaf springs. I have a 98 k1500 ECSB, mine are sagging and I need shocks all around so looking to replace the springs, shocks, and crank level. Think my stock springs are 3+overload. What would be best for ride quality and overall use. Won't be hauling as much weight regularly as I used to but it will still haul and tow on occasions. Also will probably lift the truck in the future but don't think I really need to right now so will probably just crank level with maybe a small block.
Options I've looked at are replacing the springs with the same 3+1 packs, or go one leaf up to 4+1 then see where it sits and decide on a 1-2" block. Or i saw procomp had 3.5 lift springs and thought I could run a drop shackle to have 1-2" lift for now then stock shackle later if I do a full lift. Which would work better or any other ideas. Also does brand matter much, I kind of figured none of them would be OEM quality and likely all made at the same plant anyway unless I had them made locally.
