Removing a leaf ??

Is there anyone who has removed a leaf from their spring pack? I have an 81 Silverado SWB, the thought is that I could drop the truck a little and also make the ride a little softer. I know how to take the truck apart, but was wondering how the leafs actually seperate from each other? Also curious as to how the locating pin would be effected. Would it need cut down so it doesn't contact the axle tube after it goes through the perch?

Probably self explanatory once it's apart, but I don't want to get 1/2 way into it and find out it wasn't a good idea. Thanks
