I took both my front springs to a truck spring shop and they re-arched them to the factory spec. If my memory serves that was 5.25" The mechanic said that they would not "hold" with just re-arching, they also needed to have a leaf added which he did.
That was 5-6 years ago. The springs still are like factory new, with a very slight forward lean to the shackle.
My truck is stock. If I had done an engine swap for a heavy diesel, I would have added 2-3 springs to the pack.
