I put in airbags in my 97 for towing my boat, it was really tail dragging when loaded down. This would probably even out your ride, my rear end actually sits higher than stock even at minimum pressure in the airbags. Installation is pretty easy. Also you can get the model with the air compressor or fill them manually like I do.

Couple things to think about though before you try them. You do ride higher even at minimum pressure which can lead to a bouncy feel in the back. Also even when loaded down in the rear you probably won't ride much lower. This means that your load sensing valve won't be extended to increase rear brake pressure so you'll lose some braking in the rear. The air bags work great in my situation but if you just need to level it out I would recommend new springs instead.
