Welcome to TGO. Swap in fourthgen spring isolators, which should jack you up an inch or so.

As I understand it, they'll fit, but I'm unsure whether they'll jack the car up much beyond your OE's.

Re: 91 rs rear suspension
You can also try changing your rear shocks to Gabriel High Jackers.I bought mine from Auto Zone for about 70 bucks. The good thing about these is that you can adjust your rear height any time you want.
