Default Helper springs for 04 Silverado

2004 Silverado 4dr Crew 1500

Looking for suggestions on best rear helper springs. Bed squats to much for my liking when loaded.

Should work the same way lowered or stock.... from my understanding only difference should be a longer airbag for stock suspension
