Have you tried Timbrens? I really like the way they work on my truck. They ride a little over an inch above the axle so there's no discernible change in the non-loaded ride, but they improved the towing ride by settling down the rear end (especially bumps at speed). I don't know what the weight rating would be for the versions designed for an F150 but you might check them out.
They'll hold more than anyone should put on the back of a F150. Been there, tried to break more than 1 F150 with Timbrens on the back, lol. And you can set them up to have no effect on empty driving.
But I don't see how the bags would affect your empty ride that much. Dump the air and they should be squishy enough to not notice. Even if they say to run a certain psi empty, that's just in case you bottom out the suspension so it doesn't pinch a deflated bag. But unless you're catching air with the truck, you're not going to bottom it out in normal driving.
Or are you saying they're stiff even completely empty?
