lowered 2012

shortly after buying my pickup I lowered it w/ a Bell Teck kit. 57,000 miles later I had to replace the driveshaft ( joint at the carrier failed ) I decided to put a 2 1/2 degree pinion shim in to help my pinion angle. my problem is the bolts that go thru the springs won't be long enough to sit in the spriing saddle does someone make longer bolts to solve this problem? thanks for any help, Denny
