"What lift Springs are you using on your FC's"

If you have lifted your FC-170, what spring packs did you use?

Hi Fred,
 
I used the stock main leafs, with new bushings, then I bought over the counter, inexpensive, 73-92 Chevy Suburban 3/4 ton Rancho or equal with a 4" lift for the #1 M-677 or 6" lift the M-679, no rear blocks, I take them all apart and used all the new leafs, -minus the main leaf and smallest leafs, but used the main FC-170 leaf.
