After reviewing the posted comments here and researching costs/work between airbags and either replacement springs or added leafs, it was an easy decision to take a risk on the airbags. Adding a single leaf to both rear springs was about $260+shipping and a good deal of work. Replacing both rear springs was about $900+shipping and a lot of work. Installing airbags, based on the manufacturer’s detailed instructions, was an afternoons work for me (1-2 hours for a professional mechanic) and $320 which included shipping for the airbags. I’ll continue to augment this post as things progress.

BTW I'm not really a cushy ride freak, that said I'll try the airbags out for a season and if they merit the addition I'll add the air pump later.
