I recently acquire 2005 Eddie bauer. Notice the rear spring is very bouncy compare to my F150 super crew considering it is on leaf spring. Is there anything you can recommend on how can I make it more comfortable. Any recommendation on after market springs and shocks for my EB.
Thanks in advance!

Probably just needs the coil overs replaced. We just did the fronts on a 2004 and we did not have strong enough spring compressors to replace just the shock. We ended up doing the entire coil over. More money, but worth avoiding the extra trouble and possibility of killing a neighbor... Monroe makes good suspension, KYB is good, I run Rancho's in mine, but they are more of an off road shock (sort of bouncy).

I know that a lot of the guys don't like them but mine has factory air suspension. It is firm and I like the ride. Stiffer springs will probably help.
