Lighter springs on 73 K20?

[xavier296]

Bought a 73 K20 not too long ago with a 4" lift, and drove it home with my motorcycle in the back, and it felt great. Got home, unloaded, and now the truck rides like a tank. Even with the brand new shocks. Curious about whether anyone makes, or could I use 1/2 equivilent, 4" lift springs? Looks like the lift on mine came from add a leafs rather than new springs. Want to just spend the money to make her ride alittle more civil (I know it ain't a camry, but damn this thing takes bumps like the axles are solidly attached.) So, any help on similar height, lighter duty springs, or other fancy solutions?

post some pics of what you got

still getting a free pic hoster, but I will describe to get some more information. The rear springs are 7 thinner leafs on top of one thick bottom leaf on top of a 3" or so block. Does the block mean that I would need to order stock height lighter springs or is some of the lift in the springs also?

you can try a little less air in the tires or different less aggressive tires if you've got bigass knobbies like most lifted trucks seem to have

I do realize getting rid of the 35" BFG mud terrains would help, but damn these springs are thick!! Gimme some advice from those who have gone through this. Thanks.
