Thank you Dave! I do have stiff rear springs, so I think that the benefit of reduced articulation would be negated by causing the car to oversteer. Great explanation, I appreciate that.

Do you have an overload leaf (shortest bottom one which is not clamped to other leafs)? You could try to remove that for less stiffness. That would reduce the lateral stiffness for less oversteer, and likely allow better front/rear weight transfer when accelerating in a straight line. That's what I did with mine.
