I would give Steve at Off Road Design a call.

They can get you custom built springs for your truck.

I used 69-72 6" front lift springs from Superlift for the front end of my 1969 GMC Suburban 4x4. The only thing you need to change is the bushings. Any decent spring shop should be able to press in the old style bushings (Deaver Spring in Santa Ana, CA did it for me). For the rear, you can either use an add-a-leaf or get rear lift springs for a 69-87 Chevy truck (make sure they are the 52" ones and NOT the 56" ones). This is the only way to put together a lift for this vintage of trucks...no one offers a lift kit in kit form.

Oops, my post should have read that I used 1969-1972 Chevy front 6" Superlift springs on my 1960 GMC Suburban 4x4.
