Question Suspenion Upgrade vs Drivetrain Upgrade

Hey gang, been awhile... Most trolling on reddit
So I've ben building up the rig with lots of goodies. Tall bed rack, with 270 awning, etc.. I'm starting to notice a little squat in the rear so I know its about time to upgrade springs and shocks. But my initial plan was to lower gearing first since I'm riding on these heavy 35s.
My Question is which should I do first if I can only do one major upgrade a year?

Gears. The rest of your driveline will thank you for it.
