Hey Hercu if you are suffering with a shyte ride I don't think spring assisters are going to slove your problems, by the sound of things your shockers may be shagged out.

Spring assisters are usually used by caravan club members who have been advised to use such things when the Cavalier tends to drag it's asre once the 'Airstream' is hooked up.

Agree with Mr F
If its sagging replace the springs, if its got toomuch weight in it, take some out....... they are only supposed to gross at 2350kg ish (2600 if you happen to have the factory heavy duty suspension..)

But if you must... then go jack a corner up and measure the gap.. thats all I would do....
