upgrades/cost effectiveness

You could get an add a leaf, or air bags, or even a set of Timbrens. I have had great success with those.
4.10 gears would actually help your trans. Get heavy loads moving easier. Less strain on the auto.
I recently got 4.10s when i did my 60 swap and now i think every Ram should have came with them from the factory.

I have looked at those also, but I'm leaning toward add a leafs, how many leafs do your springs have?

Four, counting the short thicker one over the axle. I had another truck almost identical to this one and PO had added 2 extra leafs in the spring pack on each side for a total of six. It was really stiff empty, but I totaled it before setting it up for work. This was another option, getting extra leaf springs custom made by a welding shop, but then they would be in there permanent. The helwigs are supposed to be adjustable to some degree.

So I can sit level when I'm hauling wood
