When you say 1:3 ratio are you referring to spring rate or rake?

Spring rate due to motion ratio (divorced and inboard mounted spring).
If you have a 10" rear spring at 700lbs, and it has no preload on it, you might have a pretty long shock adjustment range in the rear. Without preload I would guess that you're practically sitting on the bump stop at static ride height (~1") and your ride height is fairly low like 4-4.25"?
Crawl under there and take a look. Zip tie the strut to see how far it gets pushed into the bump stop. Maybe I am wrong but I am curious to see your results and measurements. Definitely something to rule out before you go playing with anything else.
