Parabolic, or get your leaf packs custom made, There is no reason why your rig wont flex and ride smooth.
Off the shelf is limiting What area are you in??

First one in the west and the second in SA
Better ride and good load carrying also a lot less weight than a monster spring pack

Just completed a 4000km round trip from Adelaide to Brisbane and back with my new parabolic rear leaves + new coils.
All I can say is fantastic, if you are only at or under GVM they are well worth it.

I was towing our Jayco Swan Outback as well.

You can make skid plates like I did on my other leaf 4x4.
I used 1/4 in mild steel and welded them to the leading edge of the spring hangers
