I had a similar sag and fixed it by replacing the 4/1 springs with 5/1 springs and it made a huge difference. Not just in looks, but ride and stability. This is the fix you need for yours. You'll only waste time and money replacing the other bits.

Ok,so new springs but been reading about "Air Lift" or Firestone air lift,,,seems to look good I may add air bags as well,,,,Air Lift 5000 57105,,,,didn't think u could do air bags for under $300. I don't mind stiff ride just want level and better up front handling......of course new shocks back and front. What do u think?

Dino! welcome Do it!!

Plumbed separately, you can also level out. Best mod ever on the B350. And that's in addition to the Xplorer factory installed 2500# Hellwig helper spring pack.

I got tired of smacking the hitch pulling out of driveways real quick. Solved that issue, worth every penny. Not a high dollar mod, easy install. I hid the fill valves behind the license plate, they swivel out from behind the plate from top holes. Good Wrenching Dino

Finally got the rear end up,,,,put new mono shocks all the way around and then went with "Air Lift" system in rear. Love it and raised the rear just right....
