Spring swap - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

So the K20 I just inherited has the F60 and G50 heavy duty spring options. I need to soften up the ride. The choices for new springs appear to be 1110 lbs , 2350 lbs , 3390 lbs and 4100 lbs. The truck has a steel flatbed on it so I'm guessing the 1110 lbs springs would be too light. The truck is only gonna do light hauling from now a scoop of dirt or gravel etc. Probably won't tow more than a 1 ton capacity trailer. How about some ideas on what spring rates to consider ?
