make sure you are using your stock shocks, especially if they are old and/or worn.

if thats too expensive, just break out the hack saw and take a few coils off of each corner.

the best part about that method is, if you cut one side shorter than the other, you can swap them from side to side depending on how many left or right hand turns there are.

if you cut them enough, you wont even need a spring compressor to swap them out!
