Do'nut spring assisters

With our Avondale Eagle L (noseweight of 62kg) and our Citroen C5 (Berline, 2008 saloon), the rear suspension is very low, and bottoms out on most of the road surfaces that the UK currently enjoys (or is that suffers??). This also means that the outfit is is definately not level. Not a problem I've had before, as previous Citroens all had the hydraulic suspension. (And my next Citroen will also have it as well - the ride is soooo much better)

I'm considering fitting the "do'nut" type spring assisters to each of the suspension coils on the back axle.

Just wondering if any other Members are using these assisters on their towing vehicles (not just on the C5)?? Do I need to fit just one do'nut to each coil, as I am seeing some reports that I should be fitting two - one at the top of the coil and one at the bottom.

Many thanks in advance
