I figured you could use the "flip kit" as I mentioned before. And you can use the shackles without issue, but since you pulled leaf, you are one step ahead and you don't have to notch the bed.

As far as the front coil springs, just loosen the lower ball joint castle nut, take the sway bar end link loose from the LCA, disconnect the lower shock mount, take the caliper loose from the spindle and tie it back out of the way, and "wack" the spindle on either of the two "raised areas" right where the lower ball joint goes through the spindle (put a jack under the control arm and flip the castle nut on the ball joint before "wacking") and it should come apart. Once the ball joint and the spindle are seperated, just gently lower the jack and the coil spring should come out with minimal manipulation.

Once you get the stock spring out, compare it with the new spring and then you can ask how much to cut off. But without seeing them side by side, it would be tough to just rattle off an amount to cut. Just remember, if you don't cut off enough, you can do it again! If you cut off to much, you can't stretch the spring .
