we put standard 80s coils in Dawso truck and got 4" of lift over stock and also put rancho 912`s ,But then you get problems like rear steer and the upper links foul the fuel tank, so theres a bit more than just adding the coils.Pic of the rear steer

i think you could of put the sagged springs in your self by the looks of that photo ,it's a bit of a trick when you put 80 series coils in bundera,4 runner and hilux conversion to get 4" of lift .

you wouldn't have 2" of lift before you put the 80 series coils in
