Is there a way for the spring to be held up by the torque of the front spring eye bolts? No, that would be about 5000 ft/lbs of holding power...through a poly bushing! The rear shackle is straight up and down, not even leaned back under load, Thats a heavy spring!
Shocks support no weight so they are out unless they are locked up. Do you have a panhard rod?
