Most of em go on top of the springs, but yeah, same idea. Easy to install as well.

You can go spacers or new lift coil springs. Amazon sells 2", 3", or 7" lift coils by skyjacker last time I checked.

Have you looked to see how much rear comes down if you regular haul loads? That might be the plus of not changing.

Put up a side picture for us?
