Default Would This Level Out The Stock Dive?

I have a 2002 chevy silverado and im trying to get rid of the stock dive. I have heard that I can take some stock coil springs from a 2500HD or a 3500HD and replace the stocks I have with those and this will take care of that dive. Does this really work?

any help would be gr8tly appreciated.

Too stiff
I would lower the rear end - this would level the truck - this would help with dive.

You know that those are more than likely just ford keys that are available for about $15 at a dealer.

Those Keys for the chevy have had the center where the Torsion bar fits rotated so that the bar gets the extra space.
