1986 K-20 Remove 4 Inch Lift

I have an all stock 1986 Chevrolet K-20 Custom Deluxe that I sold last April. When I found it online for sale a few months ago I bought it back. The person I sold it to put in a 4 inch suspension lift consisting of new front leaf springs and blocks on the rear axle.

I would like to remove all four leaf springs and install new leaf springs that would lift the truck 2 inches above stock.

Do such springs exist and where can I get them?

Thank you!
