Leaf Spring issue

Hello my name is Ryan I am new to the website. I was hoping you guys could help me out a bit. I want to get a 4 inch suspension lift for my truck along with my 3 inch body. The problem is my truck's leaf springs are basically bottomed out and junk. So I need new leafs for sure, but I don't know if I should buy a stock-type 4 leaf spring and then put the 4 inch blocks under them or I should just buy 4 inch lift springs for the rear and don't use the blocks given to me in the kit? Also I am not buying springs through the dealer, they are $700 for each side! So where can I buy either a aftermarket spring that is like my stock springs so i can put the blocks under them or just buy 4 inch lift springs that don't require moving the hangers? THANKS!

Lift springs would be the best option:

Or many places carry the big name springs like Rancho, Superlift, ProComp, etc. Or check out Alcan Spring and they can make you a custom spring pack.
