Something that you have to keep in mind is that by design the leaf spring rear end already has a built in roll centre. By fitting a pan hard,watts, Mumford or other, a fixed point of roll centre doesn't magically appear. The built in rc will still be there but you will be working with or against it depending on were you set the height. You will probably find that you end up very close to where silly old mr Datsun set it 40+ years ago. I would say he was a pretty smart bloke. It is pretty easy to work out your rc, diagrams on google.
Is lateral location needed, probably not in such a light car.

Will also increase the rate via the bind. Good for straight line racers.

Get a piece of flat bar 40 x 6. Drill a 3/4 hole near one end. Hold the hole end flush against the nut and weld through the hole with plenty of amps, filling the hole while making sure you are welding into the nut not just the flat bar. Leave to cool before moving.

I use Pro Bushes (brand) over nolathane. They do have a small degree of compliance, and have good grease grooves moulded in. Make sure to use plenty of the lithium based grease on all surfaces and the through bolt.

You are talking about progressive rate. Normal are linear rate.
I use Kings coil and leaf springs and think they are great.
