What brand springs are they? Some manufacturers have a heavy duty version. A cheaper way would be to add coil spacers, probably 3/4" or 1".

Take those huge ass ridiculous bumpers off and sell them. The labor is free and you can put some money in your pocket. That's better than cheap. That's cash flow.

Shocks won't help with lift sagging.

Yep, Spacers will do the trick.

Default spring
I had the same problem, so I put some spacers front and rear acording to my meassurements and it came out pretty good.

Spacers will work, but unless you also install bumstop extansions, those spacers will cause the springs to compress too much and ultimately lead to premature sag all over again.
