use abs and recompile nvidia package. be sure that you modify in PKGBUILD _kernver variable and rename pkgname to nvidia-lts. also you need to add provides=("nvidia=$pkgver")

P.S to much words. http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=31412

Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.
