which leaf springs to swap?

Does anyone know of any stock leaf springs from another vehicle that i could swap into my 83 4x4 truck to get two or three inches of lift?

Not from another vehicle but Downey makes lift springs at a good price that will bolt right in. Also at a higher price you can go to Old Man Emu or All Pro Offroad for bolt ons. AOR (advanced offroad research) has some too but require some shackle modification. Then for full mods there are Chevy and Mazda and probably others. Heres Downeys link http://downeyoff-road.com/Suspension...ents/index.htm
