A few things I noticed when I experimented with my B codes:
Adding a shorter leaf spring tends to firm up the spring after it has deflected some. It sounds to me like you want it firm right from the 'neutral' point. To to this you can either get thicker leafs, or get an additional spring that supports the originals the entire length. You have so many leafs in the pics, I can't tell what is what. I would suggest trying, if you have the spare leafs, to add a full length spring (maybe another 2nd leaf) to the pack and see if that works for you.
If you look carefully at the arch/curve of each leaf, you will notice from the top leaf to the bottom the arch and thickness increases . So, if you want a little more lift, put in another 2nd leaf. If you want just more firmness (throughout the entire deflection), cut the extra main leaf (just the very ends) and stick it in between the 1st and 2nd (making sure the 2nd spring does not extend past it, easier said then done perhaps).
I must have pulled my rear spring 5 or 6 times before I got the right height and flex.
Good Luck, let us know what works for you.
