Default Front vs rear load suspension question

Hoping to get some feedback/guidance on suspension coils. I have a 95 RRC SWB and am replacing my coils. Should also mention I have an ARB Deluxe Bumper, Warn winch, skid plate and rock sliders. Current springs are old OME 2" HD. Shocks are in great condition (OME Nitrocharger Sport) so I'll just be swapping out the old coils for Terrafirma +2" coils. Want more clearance up front and just haven't been really impressed with OME coils.

Anyway, my question is in regards to the front load vs the rear load and deciding between Terrafirma heavy or medium coils. I know that Terrafirma heavy coils are very stiff if you don't meet the load requirements. With the extra weight I have in the front, the heavy coils seem to make sense, however, I don't regularly have much additional weight in the rear which is why I'm second-guessing that. Looking at what Terrafirma states as the recommended loads for heavy versus medium, the medium seems to make sense for the rear, but I'm at the upper end of the load range for the front. Right now I'm leaning towards medium front and rear or heavy front and medium rear. If I didn't have so much extra weight up front, I would definitely go with medium all around.

Can anyone chime in on their experience with Terrafirma heavy or medium coils? Bonus points if you have a similar setup as me!
