Tacoma Rear is sagging a bit w/topper installed

I have a 1996 Standard Cab 4x4 Taco with all stock suspension (no lift), I have searched high and low for recomendations for a slightly sagging rear suspension after a topper install with no luck. I was considering an Add A Leaf kit, or even installing an additional factory leaf off of another Tacoma to gain the much needed 1.5 inch rear lift or so to get rid of the tired suspension look I have going on Any recomendations or experiences with any of these 2 ideas would be great. Thanks in advance.

OME leaf springs would solve the problem and provide a better handling ride.

That could work.....but consider this alternative
http://gearinstalls.com/dc.htm

you should get the 1200.250.0150 from here
http://www.northwestracing.com/catal...Eibach+Springs

those will give you 2" of lift. The ride will be very soft also.

This is what I'm doing to my 2001 Taco.
