I mix and match all the time, but more often than not I just have the spring pack rebuilt at the spring shop telling them what I need. They usually add a leaf or 2 and re-arch the pack and install new bushings.

I've still got a bastard pack in my 1 ton flatbed, but that thing is such a beast it doesn't matter in the long run. I even added 3 leafs to the auxillary/overload pack
