What's the most common technique for upgrading the lever style shocks to tubes?

We're looking for a easy solution.

Hi, JungleJames, I inquired about this a few years ago for a 1/2 ton so I'm not sure if this will work for a heavier truck. But someone might chime in with more info. Many vendors sell the upper and lower brackets for tube shocks. You might be able to find used. The links below are for Classic Parts.

It's a small world, but I wouldn't want to paint it.

Nice, thanks Rusty. Exactly what I wasn't finding on my own.
