bobbed bed rear lift help

hi guys im doing an SAS on my 89-95 toyota pickup and will be running Old Man Emu RUF as my springs up front and have been told itll be around a 4'' lift. my bed is bobbed and cant run chevy 63s anymore to match. what choices do i have? i would not like to run ford f150 leafs due to the axle wrap that ive heard about. any help on what i could/should run for my rear supsension? thanks. i have pictures i can upload if needed on what i have

So when you bobbed your bed you also chopped your frame?
what's your budget? 4wheel underground 4 link
if f 150 springs are the usual 57" spring a lot of company's sell like Trail Gear or All Pro(yes owned by trail gear now) it seems like a shorter spring would have less axle wrap than a 63 inch spring

id like to spend a max of 1,000 dollars. yes when i bobbed my bed i also chopped my frame also. do you have any personal expierence with trail gear? i go camping just about every weekend and fill the bed full of my gear. i daily drive during the week. would a 4 link be practical for that? with my OME RUF leafs what would be a good lift spring height to head towards? a 4" spring? 3"?
