2" or 2.5" front leaf springs?

I'm looking for some new springs for my truck and at the same time i'd like to level it at 2"-2.5" not 4" +.

It's a diesel so they can't be wimpy. I can't find lifted front springs under 4", can you???

Thanks.

If you level the truck, it's going to be squirrely as all hell trying to pull a trailer. The rear is meant to be higher than the front so it's level when pulling a trailer. And that'd be entirely defeating the purpose of having a heavy duty truck like that.
