I have my car back on the road. Everything is stock, including new springs and
rebuilt shocks.  One big thing I was hoping to have changed was the stiff ride
in the back. Any bump over 1/2 inch in the road causes a severe jolt to the
system.

I'm pretty sure my connections at both ends of the leaf springs are moving
freely, so... What do people recommend?  Can I remove a leaf? Has anyone done
this? Are there after-market softer springs?

Should I carry around a few hundred pounds of sand?
