How much lift do you have?  A AAL will raise the spring rate which should help keep the rear from sagging as much.

My Jeep sits about a inch higher when I take the top off.  I can really tell the difference in ride with less weight back there though.  That's the trade off of stiffer leafs.

Yeah, you have to be careful when doing AAL's.  Many aftermarket AAL's are short, load leafs.  These are very stiff.  The good ones are full length.

How old are your SkyCrapper springs?  They were known for sagging back in the day, I owned a soft set, don't know how the newer versions are.  They shouldn't be sagging that much with a hardtop.
