    Honestly I would not soften the RR spring to help entry with as soft as you are. The spring affects more than entry and could hurt you center and off more than other adjustments. Add more right lower bar angle or static trail on the RR or space the RR out.

    That's gonna make her roll....weight transfer will be slow. May allow for excessive weight transfer.

    Soften the lf spring
    Raise j-bar on rear end (sorry had typo that said chassis)
    Try a straight panhard bar

    I think there should be lifeguards in the genepool.

    Soften the LF spring.

    Don't be afraid to get a crazy amount softer on the LF spring than the RF. I had to put 200 lbs. softer LF spring than RF in my car to get it to turn on entry. In the heavy I could still go 50 lbs. softer.

    Give the car what it wants, forget about the numbers.
