Have you looked at your body mounts? They play a big part in stiffening up the frame. You may also consider welding in some beefy cross members, and putting gussets around them. I wouldn't want to completely make the frame rigid. More trouble then its worth, and you better have suspension upgrades planned. Like 4 links...

Do that, and swap the rearched springs for a set of 73-87 52" rear springs. That'll help your flex a lot.

Some other stuff you can do as well to take it a step further.

Your right about the rearched springs they ride like crap. I've been thinking a lot about the 52" fronts. I think I'm going to tear the rear back apart and put in a set of 62" springs out of a one ton, prob take out a few leafs to help the ride.
I don't want it to be completely rigid but I want to make it stronger for towing and I want it to look beefy too.
My supports are prob the stock ones, what would you recommend?
