Very cool truck. I'm envy of your find at that price.
My grandad used to grease between the leaf springs on his boat trailer for a smoother ride after launching in salt water. You should try driving a wedge between each leaf and greasing/oiling the leaves. The improved ride quality on my 91 was very noticeable after I did this. 1st gen springs don't have the plastic pads at the tip of each leaf to soften the ride.
