If they are the same width you could take some leafs from the 2wd springs to make a pack up using your existing main leaf.

it pretty pointless putting stock springs back in. they all sag.
we had an extra leaf fitted and the springs reworked back into shape.
the leaf was basically another main leaf.
result is 2" lift and despite the tonnage we put on i havn't hit the bump stops yet.
mix and match the leafs might work. tho old ones really need to be recurved.
you could look at fitting the two main leafs together. obviously mod to fit.

Chamberlains or Bellamy and East do them. Give them a ring for pricing.

had mine done in south auckland for about $125. raised it about 20mm from standard. they did a great job and answered many questions I had about loads and towing etc.
where about are you???

Chch standard would give me about 2" lift atm and some home made shackles would give me all the further lift I need and want
