Default Making my truck ride like a caddy

Hey guys, I want to get a softer ride from my truck, the suspension is stock
I have V6 springs in the front. My truck is a 2000 RCSB silverado 2wd
Since i'm going to get a leveling kit from rough country... well the 3in spindle with the shocks.... what else can i do aside from that? I also wanted to replace the tie rods. I know my shocks are shot already... any bushings? Should I replace the springs? I've heard that they transfer weight a lot better than the V8 ones. Thanks

You probably will not be happy with the supplied shocks if you are looking for that good of a ride. The v6 springs will lower your truck as well IIRC.

Options are endless to be honest. You can tie up 2k in your suspension really quickly buying nice stuff. They have aftermarket leaf springs also. . .
