Maybe best to explain what you want 1st.

To improve ride and not worry about carring big loads, take out a load leaf. This will help it flex.

To make it flex well and get a nice ride keep the leaves but put some nice loooong ones in there.

It takes a bit of work to get a rear setup to work well. Radius arms can work well but flex is limiting.
