leaf spring sag

i have a 1948 f-1 with the original leaf springs. on average, how much closer to the ground is my truck now than when it was new?
i ask because one of the main springs are broken and i am trying to decide if i should get the reversed eye springs. most books say the reversed eye springs would lower the truck about 2 inches but i am wondering if there is only a difference of 1 inch between old springs and new reversed eye springs....thanks for any help! ! ! RC
