Default Lift Kits with New Rear Leaf Springs?

Hey does any one know of a lift kit that includes new rear leaf springs? I think mine are sagging or bent or broke or something from what I have heard in another post. Also if any one has new(er) rear leaf springs what does it look like at the connection at the front of the leaf pack (pics greatly appriciated). I am replacing my suspension and thinking of doing a lift at the same time so maybe i can kill 2 birds with one stone. Thanks.

Give me a sec and ill go take some pics of dale and show ya how hes setup. More than likely you just need an add-a-leaf set to build that leaf spring back up. Much cheaper to do that too than getting a whole new leaf spring .

Well, that is if you leaves are only sagging and not broken... If they're broken, do yourself a favor and get new springs.
