My front end looks saggy...

On my 4R to clarify!
I installed the daystar spacers to retain the XREAS while its still good, and it looks fine. But, when I put my (heavy) winch up there, it tends to weigh the front end down, and makes it kind of look like it has the same slanted stance it did before the spacers. Are there any options to counteract this? I imagine stiffer springs or something, but I want to keep the xreas for now until I save up the cash to overhaul the whole suspension. Also dont want the front end to spring way up if I take the winch off. Any (easy, cheap) fixes for this?

I had a similar problem with my spacer lift. It just flat out looked saggy in the front. Unfortunately, due to XREAS, not much I could do without completely swapping out the entire XREAS system. I went one year with said spacer lift, then, two weeks ago, SCRAPPED IT ENTIRELY, for Toytec Ultimate. The amount of lift discrepancy between to two setups is startling. Handling is way different as well. On road, XREAS has its advantages, but if you want to run 285's, XREAS is damn near out of the question.
 
Unfortunately you are adding a ton of weight (winch & mount) to a short soft spring. There really isn't much you can do. Just save up the $$ and replace everything.
