It's an interesting read but then you need to consider the source. Halverson - oh well! He publishes what he's paid to publish.
It still doesn't negate the possible + to the increased spring rate. Halverson's #'s for his suspension parts are numbers he was supplied with from production specifications, you don't think there were manufacturing tolerances? A '91 spring is 23 or 24 years old and your ''94 spring is just a couple years younger maybe. If you want to know what the '91 spring actually is "NOW" get it checked! Answers maybe all of your questions.
I believe it's being way "over thought" - had the later spring not had the pedestal type cushion at the control arms you would have had the job "done" and been telling us about the things you really enjoyed about the change.
