IFS rears could be worth a shot but Id say you may lose a bit of height.
Otherwise coil rear end from either a 4runner or Surf.

Theres your problem right there.... 4" efs springs...(nothing against the brand) the problem with such lifted springs is the are on such an ark they dont flex down as they have no were to go... a flatter spring is much better so you can have flex upwards and downwards.
The front will work well as its got the weight of the engine over it forcing them to work.... there is no weight in the rear of luxy's hence why you would be lifting wheels more than you would like in the rear. A flatter longer spring will help with this, if you want to level the car back out you can use lift blocks in the rear... You could always go buggy leaf in the rear and pin it for the road.
