Lift springs

I want to lift my 1969 4x4 by 3-4" and I dislike lift blocks. My springs are original and seem a little tired. So, to kill both birds I want to buy replacement springs with a 3-4" lift built in. Anyone know where to get such a beast? Tried emailing Rough Country, who make a lift with front springs and rear blocks but seem to have rear springs as an option, but I get no reply.

Second question is about shocks. Anyone know what shocks I'd need for such a lift?

In case you're interested, other projects in the pipeline are:

Convert to EFI using a TB, later computer controlled dizzy and a MegaSquirt
Later convert to propane (maybe)
Replace the axles for stronger and disk brakes, but not sure which yet
Replace the heads for aluminum (lighter/better flowing)
Replace the junkyard TH350 with a 700R4
Blast/powdercoat the wheels and replace the rusty wheel studs

I should do a build log here, eh?

TIA,
-Steve
