Default 03' F-250 PSD w/8" Lift - Sagging in the Front

My 2003 F-250 appears to have gone from a bull dogged look, to the reverse.
A year or so ago I installed a Road Armor Front bumper with a 16.5 Warn Winch.
I believe the weight has taken a toll on the leaf springs.
The truck has a 8" Skyjacker / Fab-Tech hybrid (Skyjacker springs).

What are my options?

Replace the springs?
Install hangers?

That seams WAAAY to fast for the springs to be worn out, id contact skyjacker and make a complaint and they might offer to replace them. Try threatening them with a bad name if they dont lol.

How much is it sagging? The some Super Duties had a lean to the driver's side. Also are you sure you got the diesel spring pack if you have diesel? You might want to check the numbers on your springs, I bought 8" springs for mine and come to find out they where 5.5". Another good spring company is Deaver who has a life time warranty on there springs. You might want to check with Superlift quick as I understand they might be in CH 11 along with Fabtech and several others.
