looking for a nice ride!

I'm looking for sugestions from other fellow ford owners with jacked up trucks on how to get the best possible ride out of my truck & what u guys r using. I have a 99 f250 with an 8 inch superlift suspension lift in it riding on 38" toyo's. At the moment the rear is just lifted with lift blocks & she bounces down the road like a dam lumber wagon. I think part of this is because this truck has huge heavy duty rear leaf's in it (it has a fat 7 leaf pack in the rear that if I remember correct is rated for like 40,000 lb's) I'm thinking bout switching to the actual rear leaf springs from superlift & get rid of the blocks. Anybody ever use these or have any suggestions to improve my ride? I don't do any towing so not worried about weight ratings. Also what do u guys do to improve the pitch of the driveshaft so u don't eat up u-joints? Thanks!
