I just replaced the track bar, put the levelling kit on the truck with the new shocks , and cant tell why it rides "stiff"

It's not the shocks causing this, its the leveling kit. I installed mine just over a month ago, and that is exactly what happens. The leveling kit MASSIVELY increases your spring rate.
All you can do is deal with it really.
Not this time, V. The 4wd leveling kit doesn't change the spring rate ... stiffer springs CAN be used to raise the nose but that's not what we're talking about.
