Just got a 4" BDS lift installed and the rear end appears to be a couple of inches lower than the front. Definitely not level. I'm thinking it's the weight I have in the back. I've got toolboxes and a canopy and the springs probably can't hold everything up. The truck was almost level before the lift went in. Talked with the company that put the lift in and they said air bags won't work with the lift.

Any suggestions?

There are some options for aftermarket coils for the rear that might work for you.
Tools + topper can get pretty saggy with rear coils as is.

You COULD use air lift bags, but you'll be relying on them to hold it up, might not have the best ride quality at that point.

I personally do as White Express suggested. The ride is a little more stiff lol, but I expected a truck when I bought it, not a Cadillac, so...

Nice part about the airlift 1000's is they also help with handling way less roll in the corners. I think it gives it a confident feel.
