Now I am going to assume your on leaf springs in the rear with 8.8 rear end. The springs in the front shouldnt be too much trouble. Go to a public scale somewhere and weigh the car..then put just the front end on the scale. That will tell you what your front weight percentage is of the total weight of the car. Once you have those numbers call your springs guys and tell them what you have and what those numbers are. You can do the same for the back but based on the assumption that you have leaf springs changing those is going to be a real pain. What I would do with the back is make shock change. You can get shocks with varying rates of compression and rebound. A harder compression rate would make the rear end a little more stiff and feel more stable.
Just some thoughts
