Lowering the lift

So my new K20 is a four inch lift. I want to go down to 2.5 inch. Ive had the Skyjacker softride set up before in 2.5 inch and I liked it. All springs, no blocks.

So I looked em up .. sticker shock! LOL, they are way more expensive then they were "back in the day" Plus I only saw the rear leafs with blocks.

So now Im thinking if I have to spend that much money maybe there is something I can do to put longer springs in. I had a 73 K20 and that thing road so much nicer than the 72 and older.

I have no idea if its possible to put later springs in and keep the lift at 2.5 inches. Honestly Im no suspension expert, if its bolt in I can do it. But I don't know all the ins and outs of spring lengths or even where to look to figure this conversion out.

Can some one point me?
