it mab be the length that is the problem rather than the poundage I would suggest shorter springs

9" does sound very long to me. Dropping to 8 should do the trick.

Well that would depend on what the issue is in the first place!? What do you mean by 'correct rake'? Correct front ride height? Is that because the spring pan has reached the bottom of the thread? If so then yes it will help.
