suspension upgrade questions

can anyone out there give me some advise i am already going to put a level kit on my truck soon and i was wondering if by putting a 3inch in the front and install the firestone ride rite in the back would be a could combo i think tox has this setup on his truck, but also will that help out the ride in the back as i notice my bed seems like it bounces alot when i am driving down the road. i don't do that much towing the only this i would ever tow is sea doo's and a trailer to pull quads not that much weight.

Is the bed bouncing side to side or the whole thing up and down? Is it just the bed or the whole truck? City or highway, speed?

I don't think the bags will help much with a bed shake. You could try some different springs on the truck. I think someone with the highway bounce tried stiffer rancho adjustable shocks and that calmed it a bit. The normal ride is stiffer, but the adjustables let you try a range of shock settings to find one you like.
