Front Spring Compatibility?

Front Spring Compatibility?
I have read many threads on this, but I cant seem to nail it down, any help would be appreciated! My stock front springs are sagging to the point that every bump I hit is teeth chattering. I want to maintain as close to stock ride height with new OME springs and shocks, I understand I can go about 2 inches without screwing up anything. Catch is I have ACE and rear air springs. I am going to put in new air bags (leaking) and shocks all around, but is there an OME kit just for the front that will play nice with ACE? I want to keep ACE and rear air bags, so coil conversion and ACE removal is not an option. Thanks all, I appreciate it!

Disco Mike is probably your best bet as he has ACE in his rig and has full understanding of the SLS.
I believe you can go 2-3 inches lift and it will not effect your ACE system. For the bags you would have to get 2 inch spaces to keep the truck level.
I have not seen any lift kits for ACE & SLS; I have look, as I have the same set up.
I believe we have to buy the parts seperately, ie. front springs, airbags and a shock/ stablizer kits.
Toddco has the air bags spacers and Arnott makes the air bags, Arnott say they do custom bags so maybe you dont need the spacers, front spring and shock kits can be found anywhere.
Let me know how you make out i'm heading down the same road.
I kind of sick of the teeth chattering myself, I have 90+ on what look to be original shock and springs.
