Default Need to level Jeep. Heavy Load in back end

I am planning a trip through the Rockies (Northern B.C.) and into Cali and Texas. I will be loading my Jeep up with a lot of gear and would like to know the best way to level the jeep back out because I know the ass end will be lower than the front.

Any ideas?

if you're looking for a permanent solution, adding a 1" coil spacer in the rear will do the trick. if you want something more adjustable, you might want to consider an air lift:

LOL, thanks for the suggestion but I think I'll go with Eddie's idea of the Airbags! Nice cheap, easy, reliable solution!
