AMC,
If you are trying to keep in your budget, just leave the front springs alone and see how it does. You can always add a tractor weight to the front.  If you cut springs down you are going to increase the spring rate. Thanks for the detailed photos of your changes.
I remember about 18 years ago I was coming down Pikes Peak and saw an Edsel coming up. It was on a 4wd truck chassis.
