Default SHock...ing question

Some days i wish I would have spent a little more time in the garage instead of on the sales floor...

About 2-3 weeks ago i used my truck to hall a little dirt... ok a lot of dirt. The guys that work for me filled it up to the top of the bed with dirt... The leaf Springs went beyond what I would call safe and sat that way till the next day. Problem is now I feel like the leaf Springs are almost flat. Is there a way to check the leaf Springs out? If they are ruined I thought about replacing them but I wanted to see if anyone uses Airbags.... I figured what the hell do them both at the same time.

Also... Has anyone used the Jack that is a giant Airbag that hooks to your exhaust?

I was getting all my stuff together to do my mods last week end when I noticed it... so frustrating ... Oh well still waiting for parts to come in... Guess I will just add leaf springs to the list and maybe some airbags
