I have the 2006 Dually and before that it was a 2005 GMC DRW and I put stable loads on the lower overload springs, they come with 3-4 plates I think, each a quarter inch thick and all you need to do is pop the plug/pad and install.
I was only able to get one plate between my lowers but it did help on those older coastal roads, the AC is slide side heavy so going around corners and especially rolling dips and bumps, it help with the porpoising front to back.
The newer truck came with airbags and I run the slide side at 60# and the driver side at 40# and it gives good feedback on the road.
For me the stable loads made a lot of difference on a stock set up and I use both loads and bags, YRMV.
