72 K10 Smother Leaf Spring Suggestion

[josuito]

Hello guys, I just added a 1972 K10 4x4 to my truck collection, I'm still learning so please ignore my ignorance.

When driving my truck is so stiff from the front suspension, I friend of mine told me he put softer leaf springs to his K5 but he forgot the brand. I want to keep the leaf springs, I can't bring the back leaf springs to the front or do any major project, changing leaf spring and adding new shocks seems to be good for me.

Any recommendations for a smoother drive? He also mentions putting 2 shocks in front with an addon bracket where the original goes.

Thanks in advance
