4 runner saggy rear springs

Like most 91 4runners mine sits low in the rear! Is this because the springs aren't stiff enough or what? I've been told that there is some way you can stretch or something to the springs. Us this true or what is another way of correcting this? Thanks for any suggestions!

Pretty much a typical issue with 4runners. Lots of info on this site regarding this. Search for threads on suspension.
Also try this link http://gearinstalls.com/. The "ZUK" method of correcting the saggy rears of 4Runners is explained.

Zuk mod doesn't work for a 91. We have coil springs already...

They are real easy to swap out though; maybe an hour with a spring tool and good jack.

Moog makes heavy duty coils for the 2nd gen 4runner. I put them in mine. They help some. . .
