Rear Leaf Spring. Another thing broke!

[dnaugtbass]

So I was having my new muffler welded on the other day - it was on the lift and I noticed the Right side leaf spring has a couple leafs broken (on the front of the spring perch.
I don't really want to lift the truck, but I would like some better(cheap) springs. A local spring shop quoted me $280 to fix that side. I've seen springs online for about $300 for both . . . but they are lift springs.
Any ideas on aftermarket springs for no lift.
I was thinking maybe trying the Pro comp rear leafs that say 4-6 inch lift, and taking out the blocks. I guess then I would have to buy like a 2 inch spring on front. That might work.
What do you think would be the best way to do it?
Has anyone else had these back springs break?

Where are you located? I have some 5" rear procomp springs forsale

I'm In Utah. I don't really want to lift the truck, but I think my F350 has a 4" or so block I could take out. Where you at, and how much? Do the pro comps ride better than stock, and do they haul as much weight?
