2001 2.7 Tacoma Rear leafs are crap

I have a 2.7 Tacoma and the rear suspension is crap. It feels really floaty, tipy, light and the leafs feel extremely over sprung. When I put at least 100 LBS of weight in the bed it feels a lot better.

Does anyone feel this as well? Can I put the TRD (3.4) shocks and leafs back there for better handling/ride?

Thanks!

I believe that the rear springs are the same but either way, you have to put more weight back there no matter what you run to get it to run right.
