Opting for stiffer coils was probably a poor choice.

Post up a link to the coils you used.

If you somehow got ttb coils that would explain it, they're something like 60% higher rate than straight axle Springs.

Yeah I just looked up JBG coil springs on google and every option they have are for 1980 to 1996, you have the wrong springs buddy.
The TTB springs have to fight the force of the axle levering against them so they are much stiffer than the solid axle coil springs.
