If the springs have sagged or flattened from years of being loaded up (these are truck chassis and few trucks are fully loaded 100% of their life) consider taking the MH to a truck spring and suspension speciality shop and have them re-arch the springs and add a leaf to them. In the long run this is the best thing to do.
This is what I did with an old E350 under a 24-ft Class C. But...
1. Those springs were tired and sagged. Coach had an awful sway.
2. Raising one end above OEM ride height, means always having to "level" on a campsite, even if the site actually IS level.
All I did was add a "repair leaf" to each side. These are generic leaves bought by width, thickness, and length. We had to cut the length and drill each leaf for the center bolt. Did NOT re-arch them since I'd heart the tapered Ford leaves didn't tend to retain the new arch for long.
