What kind of budget are you looking at and how involved? 
Caltracs are the best setup for leaf spring setups.  They are in our catalog.

The Cal-Tracs will work well. I'm using Rancho RS 9000 shocks mounted vertical (Chris can get those for you also), stock replacement springs with the overload removed. Lorne
