increase shock oil weight.
look for a big bore spring kit
maybe even reduce shock piston size hole and amount of holes

are you bottoming out too easy? or is the truck sitting low? is it acting "springy"?
shock oil weight changes how fast the piston will go up and down within the shock body. (thicker = slower / thinner = faster)
spring weight changes how fast the shocks/vehicle returns to ride height. (stiffer = faster return / softer = slower return)
preload spacers (in this case you should have threaded shock retainers on the top to adjust pre-load, just loosen or tighten these retainers to adjust), these adjust your actual ride height. more compressed the spring, the higher the ride height is, closer to the top of the shock lowers the ride height.
