you can try spring over or get a nice 2" leaf pack and get some extended shackles they work well for me

Are you working a Body Lift into the equation. That will give you a bit of height on the sills, and also help clear larger rubber...

drop the body lift and go SPOA

Suppose you can do that too, but I'm from QLD, I can't... :bad-words:

I drove an old Surf with V8 and SPOA, felt really tippy... :armsup:

extend the length of the springs - gives you good flex and height.
