Jim, first off let me welcome you to this site. We are always glad to have new people here. Lets take a look at what you have to deal with here.
Normally I would say lower the front 2" with some dropped spindles since they won't effect your ride or ability to align. Dropped coils are cheaper but they will change your ride since they are going to be shorter and a bit firmer than what you have now. The cheapest route would be to cut one coil off of your stock spring. If done properly this is the most economical route.
The problem with that approach is the tires you have. I think your going to have clearence issues if you lower the front and try to run 31" tires.
You need to take a look at your rear springs and see if they are sagging or any leafs are broken. You may have to consider raising the rear if you want to have a level truck "and" keep the tall tires....
