I am pretty sure the front springs are the same diameter as the rear. So if you want it jacked up a bit stick a set of front springs on the back. The spring base will probably not line up perfectly but it will fit good enough to not be an issue as long as you keep the rubber washer on there to keep the rubbing noise down. From what I can remember I think front and rear are the same diameter steel just the fronts are longer.

Just as a rough guess a front spring would prob lift the back end up 2-3 inches. If you don't want to try something quite that strange, the 96+ cars had the stiffest stock springs but they weren't that much stiffer than the older ones. The 4 door had the same springs as the 2 door.
