Like they ^^ said....go to a good/reputable spring shop. They do it every day and could also advise you on which way is the best.
That's all a spring shop does, springs, so their good at, and they have probably seen it all.

I can't see it taking them more than a day to do. I've had springs/leafs added on previous vehicles, both front and back and it doesn't take them more than a 8hr work day.

Good Luck
Rick
