How many leafs can i drop?

Okay i went a little crazy with the camera tonight and took pictures of everything. Now I'm lookin at pictures and comin up with random quesions. Like"
how many of these leafs i can get rid of?
I'd like to soften up the ride to maybe a half ton'ish level. I'm know it's gonna ride like a brick no matter what and I'm going to be puttin a body lift in it so the box will probably bend before i get it on the overloads, but can i pull any out of the regular leaf pack without losin any altitude?

Looks like you have normal half ton spring pack, with a HD spring pack UNDER it. I'd take out the pack with 8 leaves, and leave the pack with 4 leaves.
