I took mine to a local spring shop, they added another leaf slightly shorter 
than the longest leaf and it solved the sagging problem for me. Per their 
instructions, I measured the car on the flat before going in and told them how 
high I wanted it to sit when completed.  Came out about 1/2 inch higher than I 
wanted, but no sag or bump for sure.  Cost me $135 2 years ago. Good luck, 
Dewey
