Here are some pics. It's been about a year since I swapped out the leaf pads. I forgot I used one 1/4" and one 1/8" plate. The picture is of the two extra 1/8" plates I had.
Remember that the top leaf pad that you are currently running is acting like a lowering block. If you end up running plates and put them under the leaf it will raise the car equal to whatever the compressed thickness of the leaf pad is.
Like Todd said getting rid of the leaf pads may create some vibrations. I didn't notice anything when I made the swap, but between my cam and exhaust it may just be covered up.
If you want you can have the extra plates that are in the picture. I'm pretty sure they won't be thick enough to get the job done, but it will give you something to show a local spring place what you want. I had about $35 into the plates and bolts for both sides. If you can't find anything local to you let me know and I could pick them up for you at the place I got mine if this is a direction you decide to go.
