Meh' they are at worst relatively the same size and nothing your skills may or may not be able to compensate for.
But seriously there are plenty of interchange databases available and no reason for you to of bought a part that isn't compatible.
Uh the 1999 spring has a higher load capacity than the 2nd gen(it's a heavier vehicle), assuming you can wedge it in to the spring buckets it might have a bit harder ride (think skate board over sidewalk expansion joints, which is actually how I can tell my 2nd gen tires are low).
PS cause I'm salty drinking booze and past bed time "help immediately" just fill the bath tub and dive in.. Sorry maybe..

OP- moved your thread to the correct section
you would be better off buying new rear springs...Toyota has never gotten rear springs correct. Saggy coils from a 99 are still gonna sag in a 93. Find a tape measure and measure the diameter.
Like mentioned before FJ80 springs are a direct fit diameterwise but will give you 3-4" of lift depending on how worn out they are
