Have a look at doing a Rears Up Front conversion (used springs $100pr), extended shackles ($60-70 inc new bolts) longer shocks ($200)
The shackles are made of C section, can't remember the size. I can measure it if no one else can remember.
Rubber spring bushes will also give more flex than urethane, however urethane lasts longer. Full set of new rubber bushes less than $100.
Note, pic is before longer springs went in. Shackle angle pictured is ALL wrong.
