were to get factory springs

let me explain I just bought a 1985 GMC k10 with the 6.2 diesel auto 4x4 its been a one family truck all its life but its been a working truck at that. body is actually pretty good for this area. This truck is to be my new daily drive after i got rear ended in my 2000 focus (it was totaled).

Im starting to bring it back to par but i see the springs in the front have seen better days its currently a 2 leaf front which i believe that makes the rear a 4 (haven't looked) id like to make it a 3 in front and a 6 rear which i believe is a 3/4 tone spring set up i don't want to lift it high (already have one of those) i figure the current height and adding 3/4 ton parts might bring it up 2 inches which is fine.

in short where do we find factory spring replacements. Also ill get pics up of the new truck and the one that i already lifted. (currently have 3 gm
pickups now) 1986 c10,1986 k10 now more like a k20 and a half, and a 1985 gmc k15)
