Yeah, swap in another set of packs, or if you want a little lift get a set from an Explorer.

I had that problem with my Ranger... Since I was using it like an F-250 most of the time, I built my own leaf packs for it. Gave it a lil lift... enough that I had to use shocks off of a 4x4 Ranger. But I loved it, I could load it down without bottoming out.

sounds like a personal problem. Might be a surgeon that can take care of that.

And make sure your shackle mounts don't look like this:







My drivers side was actually riding on the bottom of the bed at that point. o_O I found replacement shackle mounts on ebay, but it turns out they are made by Dorman. I can grab you a part number if you need it.
