My plan is 4" springs and 2" blocks. with air lift rubber/plastic bladder helpers inside the coil spring.. for when I'll have things in the bed.. Shows, or a long cruise powertour /etc and take tools and a few extra part.
2" travel doesn't seem like much.. was hoping to not have to notch the frame.
