New shock questions

Hey everybody! I have had my 4Runner for about two months now, and I'm curious about getting new shocks. im pretty sure it's still sitting on the original shocks and they seems super squishy. I weigh 155 and when I get in the truck it seems to sink, a lot. I am a complete newbie when it comes to anything lifted or basically anything with altered suspension. When you get new shocks do you also need new springs as well? Also what is involved in changing shocks? The guy I got the truck from told me that it has a leveling kit on it, would that be a lift or what? I'll attach a photo and could somebody tell me if they think it is lifted or tell me the best way to find out if it has been? Sorry for all the seemingly dumb questions but I really have no idea about this stuff. I need someone to explain like I am 5!

You don't need new springs but it depends on your goal. If you just want a stock ride then new shocks could help but the springs can be saggy as well. I've always been a fan of just replacing what you can the first time you're under there
