My truck is still sitting pretty high but I went with the +3's and don't really carry that much weight.

 

[40oz]

So Deaver no longer keeps in stock the +2HD, they only keep the +3HD.

I really didst want to be ass high and I tow a pretty good bit. The whole reason I wanted to get new springs is because my truck almost throws me off the road everytime I hit a series of potholes or dirt road washouts.

Question is do I have any other options?

There's really not that much difference, almost an 1"
And don't forget they do sag after a while.

There are drop down shackles you can get, if it really bothers you.

Man, I thought I was the only one having this issue. I promised not to touch the suspension of this truck but I started entertaining the idea because of the experience that you just described.
I already got Eibach for the front and waiting to save for Icon set up in the rear.
I like it because of the 3 setting options. Also lots of good reviews on them and spoke with a few suppliers and they favored these over Deaver for what I use the truck. I go camping with a rooftop tent and gear 3 times per year plus some off-road here and there.

So looks like my only option to achieve what I would like is to buy the +3 and pair with the +2 drop shackle. I am told this will give good ride quality and the desired height in the rear.

With the +3s installed are there any other parts you need, like bump stops, longer brake lines or anything else?

 

[MTF]

There isn't any change in travel up and down, bumps stops would only be needed if you off-road hard and make hard landings.
Or your pulling a heavier trailer than you should be, they can aid in stopping from bottoming out hard.

So the stock bump stops are fine with +3 deavers

u will need spacers for bumps like ones below.
