Progressive Suspension shocks.
You can get the 11.5" shocks for the "low" HD's, however unlike your straight-rate springs, the Progressive springs are just that: Progressive, in that their weight holding capability increases as you compress them.
It might be a 120lbs/inch spring rate on a stock shock, and at 3", you'd be at 360 lbs for a full 3" travel compression distance.
On a Progressive shock, the first inch might be the same 120lbs/inch rate, but at 2", it's 140lbs/inch, and at 3" it's at 160lbs/inch. Total to compress that 3" is now 420 lbs.
Costs about $300 shipped for a pair from JPCycle.
