The height increase will be the axle diameter plus the spring thickness plus 2X the height of the mounting pad. Usually about 5".
Over/Under conversion kits are available from Dexter at their website: http://dexteraxle.com/over_under_conversion_kits

The cost varies depending on the axle diameter ($51 vs $58). These kits pretty much make it a "driveway mod" without the need to do any welding.
