How to identify front drop springs? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Here's the deal. I bought the truck as a stalled project, and it was already lowered. I have no idea how much it was dropped. Both front and rear drops were all coils.

I'm thinking I might want to bring the front up an inch, but don't know what springs are in it now. I have between ¾ to 1" of travel before it hits the bump stops. Tires are 275/60-15 at around 27" tall, and I have about 27½" fender height.

The springs are black, but I haven't found any markings on them. The front sway bar and panhard rod are labeled POL, but the shocks look like CPP. So the springs could be either brand.

Can anyone help me figure out what I have in there now?
