A pair of gas pressurized shocks (Bilsteins,etc) will jack the rear (or
front) end up ~1"+; you could also try those rubber coil spring expanders
that are available @ JCW or local Kragens/PepBoys.  They're shaped like a
fat 'H', & probably won't last too long, but they'd give you some indication
after a short while if weak springs or sag is your problem.
