Nice thread Jeff.
Being an seasoned Mopar guy I fully understand in your OP what Dodge did and how us racers worked out fixes. One thing thing I recall doing back in the day was putting the taxi rear srings on the right rear to slow the Mopar twisted launch!!!
On another note on the memory front, I have done several cold re-arches in a shop I worked at for the front and rear of leafed Blazers, that we took them from a negative arch to a positive arch and gained 4-6 inch lift and they did not try to return to their original shape. But for Gods sakes do not try to bend/re-arch too close to the centering bolts on the leaf, unless you want 2 peice leaves and buy new ones!!! Ouch....
On the typical "add a leaf" they seemed WAY too thick and arched similar to your pack and ride usually suffed from too stiff of spring rate.
Again great write up Jeff......
