Leveling kit upgrade question

Right now I have the RevTek spacer and the add a leaf in the rear with 285/70/17 rubber. Last week I noticed the rear shock on the drivers side was leaking, so I ordered the Bilstein 5100 with the 1" extended travel to replace them with. I was wondering if there was a possible way to make the ride a little less harsh without breaking the bank? The truck will not see any hard offroad use other than the odd logging road to go fishing. I don't really want to go replacing control arms or anything that extreme if at all possible. I like the stance of the truck the way it sits right now, it would just be nice if the ride was a little closer to the stock ride. Could I leave the spacer in and just add new shocks up front to soften it up a bit or do I just live with it? Thanks.
