1995 f350 front spring question

I have a 95 4x4 one ton dually and i want to level it out and get the front back up. The springs are pretty much flat and not bowed in either direction. Should I buy 2" front springs or can I get away with a add a leaf? I'm new to the heavy duty 4x4s and looking to get this thing up a little bit. Any help and or expierence will help. thanks

if you plan on getting it raised up a little bit and keeping it that way, i would go ahead and get the 2 inch spring. the add-a-leaf will help, but i have had them start to sag back down after a little while.

Should do a shackle reversal kit www.sky-manufacturing.com this will eliminate the front swing shackle (which was a poor design) and lift the truck probably to where you want it.

i was looking at that shackle kit, actually have their rear kit on my bronco. My concern is that my springs are sagging already and would rather get new springs or add a leafs to correct that problem instead of just putting a bandaid on it. Thanks for the input though
