Well, if your springs are shot there is replacements avail. Depending how bad they are theres shackle kits and springpacks to help alleviate some of the problems but are used moreso for leveling options. Also people say here they can be re-arched.

If you wanted to do a OEM replacement I would go with x-codes (snow plow package) they raised my front end 2" because my originals were shot.
