Honestly its the coils guys. Ive compared new shocks for the G to these shocks for the rear, and honestly, stocks are stiffer than these.

Adjusting preload really isnt going to help. Maybe a little but its mainly going to affect spring sag.

Holy crap! Is that an authentic, original, "Mike's Custom Dirt Overlay" ??!?
Those are pretty rare, and hard to come by, but the reviews are amazing:

If you can convert these to "true rear", can you covert BC coilovers to true?

Depending on which version of BC coils you have. You may be able to convert them to true.

But if you have the newest ones that use the rubber mount on the bottom of the bucket and the springs are shaped like a cone, then your answer is no.
