Alright, heres my idea, as apposed to buying some lift springs I think I might try building my own packs.

I have 1 set of 1/2 ton front 2-leaf springs, keep ONLY the top leaf, then I have a set of stock 1/2 ton rear leafs, take the leafs out that will fit right under the front main leaf and see what I come up with!

Not sure if its been attempted or not, but I think i'll try it and see what happens.
