• Go to a high bar squat.
• Use front squats.
• Squat in a smith machine.
• Pre-fatigue the legs before squatting.
• Drop squats altogether.
• Consider how / why your low back is giving out. Is it weak or are you over stressing it via too much low back work or poor exercise sequencing throughout the week or within your workout?
I'd also consider whether it helps you to consider it a liability that you're taller in terms of your approach to training legs: Does this help you narrow your approach (because you know there's an issue there) or does this limit your perspective (because you're creating an issue that may not exist and thus keeps you for looking more broadly for solutions)?

All great responses / questions! Thanks scott
