Sagging rear end plus small lift.

On my 04.5 I carry about 1000 lbs of tools in the back at all times. After almost 4 years I am riding on the overloads and the rear end is lower than the front. To complicate things even more I am going to put a 2 inch leveling kit of SJ d25's in the front. What would you guys suggest to get the rear up? Air bags or extra leafs with a spring re-arc, or something else. I drive on extremely rough roads with lots of mud etc....

Thanks......

I love my bags and with the flatbeds it is a must!! put on 2 quads and my trailer and my bags level it right up. Onboard air for tire fills is SO NICE!!! My 99 Iremoved the overloads and just ran the bags

Also, if you want something a bit easier look at the timbrens and crank them up.

Sounds like an older woman by the title of your thread.

Air bags are the only way to go.

If you put on air bags add the compressor too don't go cheap. I went cheap and now I get to redo it with a compressor.
