Wanting A Better Ride

I HAVE TOP GUN CUSTOMS 8 INCH COIL SPRINGS UP FRONT WITH ROCK KRAWLER LONG ARMS AND ROCK KRAWLER TRACK BAR WITH A SINGLE BILSTEIN REMOTE RES SHOCK, THE TRUCK PLOWS INTO THE BUMP SMOOTH, BUT THE REBOUND IS HARSH, ITS NOT A PLEASANT RIDE ON VERY BUMPY ROADS, I JUST ORDERED A DUAL SHOCK KIT WITH BILSTEIN 5150 WITH FIXED RES TO TRY TO HELP IT OUT, THE SHOCKS ARE NON ADJUSTABLE, IF IT DOESNT SMOOTH OUT, I MIGHT FO TO A SOFTER 6 INCH SPRING AND ADD A LEVEL LIFT TO MAKE 8, ON THE REAR I HAVE A SUPERLIFT 4 INCH BLOCK WITH SKYJACKER TWO INCH SOFT RIDE ADD A LEAF AND CUSTOM FULL ARTICULATING TRACTION BARS TO STOP AXLE WRAP AND BILSTEIN 5125 MONOTUBES IN THE REAR, THE REAR IS PRETTY SMOOTH WITH NO WEIGHT IN THE BED, BUT THE FRONT WHEN IN COMPRESSION IT FEELS OKAY, BUT REBOUND IS HARSH, DOES KORE HAVE A SIX INCH SPRING, IF I CANT FIX IT I WILL JUST DO THE KING DUAL RATE COILOVERS
