Default Re: what shocks should i get?

This comment may not belong on this thread but it does have a question about shocks too. I have a problem with the strength of my rear springs. If I put about 200 lbs. in the bed the rear end of the truck sags quite a bit. So I stopped at a spring shop to get some ideas on fixing the problem. The first thing the owner looked at was the shackles and connectors welded to the vehicle for the leaf springs. He then told me that I would need these replaced in a year and that he could put another leaf in each spring now. Then he suggested Monroe reflex shocks for all four wheels. Is this sound advice for a 2002 ranger super cab with a 3.0? I don't do any off roading and just want a nice comfortable ride. Plus I need to be able to carry more weight in the bed and tow a 12 x 6 enclosed single axle trailer rated at about 3000 lbs.
