i have a 6" mannel mega lift kit in a gu wagon , its about 2yrs old now sits great and the ride is good to .i have a far bit of weight all the time to , k-mar bar and wheel carrier, rear draws full with recovery stuff and a 37" spare that weighs 59kgs
the rear sits slightly heigher than the front and level when loaded and towing .
i think the boys at tough-dog (4way suspention) use the same coils ,so try ring either off those 2 .
it sound like you either have the wrong length coil or its way to soft

6" mega-lift coils. toughdog shocks should fix the problem.

Would have to be incorrect springs in the rear.

You are looking at $185 for the pair including freight for the extra heavy duty rears.

Yes that is a good point. I have 3 different Dobinsons rear 6-7" lift coils. You may find that the extra heavy duty rears might be 2" higher then your coils.
On the front stock height is 60-65mm at the bump stop within the coil. What are you sitting at?
