Any recommendations?

It's a Dana 60 with leaf springs, in the back.
I have the Hellwig Progressive overloads, you can tighten them too the load you carry. Its a little stiff right now the way I have them adjusted, yet when I put 500 lbs or more in the back its perfect.

Here is a pic or two, it brings the rear up in stance about 1/2 to 1 inch when mine is empty. Good Products from that company for sure.

I just got a email from them and their sway bar will mount with no modifications other than drilling a couple of holes in the frame.
