Default leveling kit, bouncy ride??

I recently put on the teraflex leveling kit (2 inch in front and 1inch in back pucks) which definitely made it sit alot better. It had a little more bouncier ride than when stock so i put on 4 nitro-shocks, which made no difference going down the road. If I put on better springs all the way around would that help if I left the pucks on? Can I buy better/longer springs and remove the leveling kit and still get a raise/lift? any help is appreciated. Thanks

you may have too much air in your tires, if your running a larger size then you dont want to fill the tire to capacity, like i got 35's on my jeep and i only run about 30 psi but i believe on the sidewall it says i need to fill to about 40ish.. anyway its just a thought.

Looks like he is running larger tires. My guess would be that the tires were installed when the lift was, and so you didn't ride in it with just the suspension changed. I would be willing to bet it is the tires.
