mdpay,
Good R&D here on your Chevy. Seems a very thoughtful, methodical, step by step, 'Add device and see what it does' mentality. I like it. You are so right on the differences in suspensions of the same make and model for different years. We've seen some mfgrs. go in and out of phase with wonders like, The Mono Spring. Who? Who thought that was a good idea? The best rear suspension ride on a pickup is one that will never, ever see any kind of load. Just make it work with a spring rate flimsy enough to give a good ride with plenty of travel and lots of shocking.
Currie has the best control apparatus for air bag and coil spring jeeps (small j). It's called the Rok Shock. Essentially an anti sway bar in a hinged, dog leg format. It is a mystery to me why it works so well, but I have seen it do absolute wonders to high suspension travel, off road rigs. I'm still waiting for something like this for us TC-er's.
