73 RR Braking Issues and Rear Springs

[73runner400]

I finally got my car shipped from Raleigh to San Diego and shes lost a lot of luster since I had my family "take care of it." Lots of work to be done and redone. First thing that I noticed was the brakes. 400 with a .501 lift not creating enough vacuum although I installed a vacuum canister in it years ago. Was thinking about one of these:

Anyone have experience with one?

Also noticed the rear end was sagging, I think the springs may need replacing. Can someone recommend a reliable/affordable source.

If its a 73, the leaf springs are a one year spring, meaning they only made that design for one year, and only Springs and Things makes correct 6 leaf replacements. I just got a set from them, and they are dead on, with the correct post and collar, and they do final arcing in house so they have correct height on both sides.
