I like a little stiffer spring than most. Mr. Landrum taught me a lot about spring wrap and tensions. There is a fine line of too soft and creating too much "wrap" and too stiff, creating not enough. Your case, is it a stock spring or "racing" spring?

Why don't you just get a rear leaf with the correct spring rate?? Do they not make racing leafs??
