Dont bother with swaping rear spring hangers just to use the 3/4 ton leafs... just install and add-a-leaf.
The front is just a simple swap. The 3/4 ton coils will net somewhere around 2" of lift if they are from a gasser and more like 3" if they are from a deisel or v10. I gained nearly 3 1/2" with my coils.
The issue you may run into though is you are going to gain too much lift for the stock front components (control arms, track bar/pitman arm etc.). What size spacers do you have now? The stock components are really only good for about 3 extra inches total, which you will be pushing 5" or more if you install 3/4 ton springs under those spacers.
Or do you plan on removing the spacers?
