this is just going off pictures. your jeep may act different in person. just some food for thought.

You're right, It's much softer in the rear. And I'm currently trying to find a more progressive coil to help this. And finding a coil that will work well with the weight and the ride height I want is a challenge. The rear is just WAY to light right now. Two of us can lift at the rear and just about unseat the coil.

But, I'm also still running short arms with rubber bushings up front that are not helping with the flex. So I plan to have everything worked out when I build my 3 link.

I havnt noticed any unloading issues though, just the back flexing faster than the front.
