Front spring fiasco :(

So I'll start off with a picture.






This truck has CPP modular spindles and 2" drop springs. CPP's catalog is loaded with misinformation. I can't even tell if the spindles are 2" or 2.5" drop. Anyway, it's too low in front @ 4"-4.5". Tire size is 275/40/20

So a couple days ago I send it to someone that can align it for me and swap out the springs. I went with ECE 1" drop springs. Well, now the truck sits even lower and I've got some decent inner fender rub.

The CPP springs have their code on them 2" drop. The ECE springs say nothing but the box says 1" drop. Even still, ECE's most aggressive front drop spring is 2". How the hell do I manage this? MAN I'm sooooooo bummed after getting it back. I don't know if I should contact ECE or even what to say. I think they are the only ones that offer a 1" drop spring. In contrast, the rear is 4" spring plus 1" block.

please help
