I just added a overload springs to my '77 J-10 shortbed. Was painless and it seems to ride just fine, so far. I haven't got to wheel with it yet, but hopefully...
Peter, the only way I have seen it done is with a ring with bolt holes for the tranny/t-case bolts and the thickness/depth being the same as the 'extra' length...
