Your Best and Easiest option would be Roadmaster active suspension. It's a little pricey (right around $350) but they're a non mantianance product that takes less than 1.5 hrs. to install.

I dont like some of the air helper springs, especially the ones that you fill through a tire chuck filler thingy, had one on our chief truck for about a year or two, then the hoses became so dried out, and split from vibrations that the system wouldnt even hold air anymore.
