I've had it on my '08 colorado for 60 000 kms. Went the h.d. springs and adjustable load assist spring as well. Suits my purposes o.k. - Flex - haha .
Any particular q's?

You'll be going the same setup as mine to carry that constant load - mine would be about 300 odd constant then more on top as required. The adjustable leaf is well worth it.
I don't see how the front end can creak unless you've gone nuts on the torsion bars? Keep the same torsion bars and just add shocks.

Is yours cab/chassis or tub?

Mine's the tub so your's will cope better with the weight with the axle further back.
