The spring isn't solely responsible for the ride. Springs and shocks need to work together. Springs can only store and rebound energy. They have very little ability to bleed energy. Springs allow movement, dampers control it.
Take a softly sprung normal vehicle. Say a Ford Crown Vic, Gm Envoy, etc.etc. Remove the shocks. Now every time you hit a simple 2" bump at speed, the wheel comes all the way off the ground and bounces off the bump stop.
Remove the oil from a motorcross bikes shock and forks and it'll bottom out after every single jump, violently.
Shocks are far too soft on American cars and trucks. Springs take up the slack. Extra progressive stiff springs. If your King 3.0's stiffen the ride too much, try a lighter spring, If you can, before pulling shims. It's an art. But generally, you can never have too much compression damping up front, and it's nearly impossible to have too much rebound damping in the rear. Err in that direction.
Unlimited funds? Select 3.0 triple bypass shocks set with very firm damping, and dial the external bypasses.
