it is a factory option, normally associated with trucks destined for hauling a camper or trailer or just for someone that wanted to order a truck with heavy duty capability - they helped keep the truck level when additional loading was placed in the bed. i.e. it was all coil spring-like ride when light loaded, but when additional weight (camper) added, the truck lowered enough for the added support of the helper springs to be gainfully employed.
