Default Spring help/ideas?

The springs I have on it now are 11 coil wraps, 20" long, and the width of the coil is 5/8". I also have 1.25" spacers on top. With the weight of the Jeep on them they sit at about 16.5" and I am needing the front to set up about 1.5" to 2" higher without it riding like a chuck wagon. What springs would you guys suggest. If I were to guess the brand under it now I think are Rough Country. They are also starting bow out in middle and I haven't heard good things about them either.

I would replace the lift spring and spacer you have now with a set of good quality springs that are the correct height. Motion Off Road has progressive rate springs for a reasonable price.
