The heavy duty Hellwig traction springs will not fit the 09 properly. Nissan moved the front leaf spring clip on the 09 models and that interferes with the mounting. The regular Hellwig traction springs are shorter than the HD ones, but I have no idea if they will fit properly. There's a thread here somewhare with pics on an 09 that tried to put the HD set on.
Edit: changed 08 to 09

Way back, a lot of guys were doing the $22 helper spring mod that JetTech came up with. Instead of using it as a helper spring it was mounted in front of the axle and was said to act like a traction bar.
Here's a link to where JetTech explains it, but the pics didn't show up. http://www.titantalk.com/forums/tit.../titan-engine-transmission-drivetrain/11185-drive-train-clunk-3.html#post155976
He also posted over at CT about them, and if you click on "04 Crewcab LE 4x2" in his sig, there are a couple of good pics of them on his first Titan. I never tried it so idk, but many seemed to really like the results.

I have them on my 08 and they fit just fine. I mounted them on the front side of the axle. they make a huge difference

Here's the thread I was thinking about, and it's the 09 that's different, not the 08.

I have them on mine and they're awesome. Huge difference, but I'm lifted.
