T680. Over $3000 to replace front leaf springs. Omg. Would a helper spring be worth doing? If not im gonna add airbags. Aint spending $3000 plus for 2 leaf springs. With new shocks it constantly hits bump stop and rides rough. Especially empty cos springs are so flimsy and makes hard to steer.
Leaf springs shot, would a helper spring be worth it?

3 grand for what? OE springs ,installed?
Aftermarket springs typically run a bit stiffer than OE for a traditional leaf spring. I would look for Triangle. Always been high quality with good pricing. Find a spring shop that buys them by the pallet and offers good pricing. I would forget bags and just go with some good shocks.
