98 Ranger 2.3L Leaf spring replacement help!

Hey, I have a 98 Ranger that I bought last year that had a 3" inch lower on it....ya...apparently ghettofied. The removed 2 springs and flattened the rest and cut the coils. I am gonna just remove the lower all together, but I don't feel the need to buy brand new leaf springs. What other vehicles leaf springs will work? I heard Chevy 1500, is this correct? I just want some more option in case I can't find any good ones off the rangers in the boneyards. Any help would be nice! Thanks!

Just wanted to throw out there that I ran the spring code through an interchange and the only thing those springs can be pulled from is the 98-00 models. All models before that had all sorts of interchanges, but there is a two letter code on the 98-00 models and they are specific to those three years. Just for anybody is a fellow boneyarder. Lol. Gotta be a 98-00 if you have a 98-00. The spring code is on the door sticker. If it says CK then you have this problem. Lol.
