Not that it hasn't been done, but going to a 4 link on the rear and keeping the frontend stock, is kind of like an elevator in an outhouse.
If you want a better riding truck, you don't have to go to a 4 link.
Try swapping to different leaf spring setup in the rear.
The Ford Ranger leafs look promising.

They're 10 inches longer so they should ride lots better. Plus, they are 2.5" wide vs, 2" giving them a little more stability.
They come in a few different weight ratings, so you can pick whatever meets your needs.
Here's the hangers for them
