I keep getting green firewood for next season in my 59 truck. I am running kyb gr 2 shocks. When loaded and overloaded my truck dumps way down where the exhaust scrapes. I get home fine but know I am pushing it. Has anyone run any really stiff shocks to help with payloads? I was thinking Billsteins possibly.? Any Ideas?

You mean shocks with an outer coil-over? The shock part won't ever make the final settle point from a load change unless they are like an off roader thing with the gas canisters and multiples. Even then you could load it up to bottom out with enough weight.

You could try Air-Shocks or Load Levelers and add air once you were loaded up if that is what you mean.
