For springs I would look at carli or thuren. I liked my carli springs.

I actually run the thuren 2.5" leveling coils up front with Bilstein 5100s all around. I am running 35s on 17x9 wheels. Handles nicely, no rubbing lock to lock.

I had Thuren's in mine but the rate proved to be too soft for the leverage and weight of my popup camper. They're in the shed for when I chuck the camper.
Excellent ride. His 2" coils yield 2.5-2.75" on a 2nd gen.
Speak to Aaron@ Thuren's shop. He'll help heaps.
