Several companies make "axle flip" kits. The one piece of advice that I've seen more than anything with them is to weld the spring perches in place on the axle as some have reported the perches slipping. Wish I'd done that on my old Komfort. I'd have no issues with putting the spings into the lower holes on the hangers, if you need to. Also, if you're going to have things apart, make =sure= you check the spring bolts and bushings. Even if there's no real wear, you'd be best served to install a wet bolt kit that has heavier spring shackles, bronze bushings and greasable bolts.
A quick check, and an axle flip kit is < $90 most places and wet bolt kit is < $125.
