Recently, I put an add a leaf kit on my front springs to level out the truck along with 4 new shocks. Now the truck rides HORRIBLE. Would putting a whole new leaf spring pack on each side help with ride quailty and keep the height of the front end? The truck comes with 2 springs stock and they make spring kits with 2 or 3 springs. Would 3 make the truck ride better or worse? Any advice would be appriciated!

The truck wasn't designed to ride level unless it has a load in it. You need to go back to your original springs.

So buying a spring pack with 3 springs would still make the truck have a bad ride?
