Question Heavy Duty Rear Leaf Springs For 1989 4runner

I Have A 1989 4runner 4wd V6 With A Procomp 4 Inch Suspension Lift Kit Installed. It Has 33 X 12.5 Procomp Mud Terrains Mounted On 15 X 10 American Racing 589 Rims.
As Most Of You Are Aware, A 4runner Is Notorious For Its Sagging Rear End, Due To The Fact That The Rear Is Heavy From The Removable Top And Perhaps Also From The Fact That It Sports The Rear Seat.
I Am Looking For A Heavy Duty Leaf Spring For My 4runner, Not A Replacement Spring. Does Anyone Know Of One?
Perhaps, Is There A Chance Of There Being A Heavy Duty Lifted Spring (4 Inch) That I Could Use And Eliminate The 4 Inch Block In The Rear?
Please Help!!! Any And All Info Will Be Greatly Appreciated!

I believe Wabfab sells a 4" leaf. Not sure if that equates to 4" of lift, or if that's just 4" longer than stock, which would come to about 2" of lift. Combined with a set of shackles tho you should be able to easily obtain 4".

If you have 4" of lift in front you want 5" of lift in the rear IMO so the rake is towards the front.

You have stock springs on blocks, that is the problem. You don't need a heavy duty spring, you need any spring that will replace that setup and you will be good to go again.
