02' rear Sag Issue

Ive had the 2.5" spacer lift alla round installed for about 2 or 3 years now, and ever since the rear of the car has progressively gone lower, and lower, and lower. Ive really enjoyed sitting a bit higher. I have a fairly large boat that i tow often and i feel that doesn't help much, could have made it worse in fact. Either way, Ive been looking hard to find some replacement springs for the rear that are a bit stiffer to help with towing, but have no luck. Im curious what some of my options are / recommendations. Looking to do something soon, Thanks!

I want to be sure the rear isnt going to sit noticeably higher than the front. Will the 890's simply fix my issue and put it back level?
 
sorry about the many messages, but if i got these , i would be replacing my rear spacers with just the springs (correct?) so do you think it would still sit level?

You'd probably get about 3" out of 890's. A little rake would look really good IMO.
 
The slight rake in the rear is beginning to grow on me. If anyone has any pictures of that type of look id like to see them. Would the 890's improve towing at all and or weight retention?
 
I have OME 883s in front and 891s in back. The 891s are a bit firmer a bit more lift and handle a large load better, worked great hauling this huge load for 1000s of miles.
I just did a cross country trip with about 800# of crap in the back.
This is what it looked like with 800# in the back, first picture.

2nd and 3rd is normal, empty

and 4th shows the load that goes all the way touching front seats touching the roof and side to side.
