Which post was that? Certainly not the case though "stronger" is not a
fully informative way to describe springs. The heavier later models
generally have stiffer springs. Some had lowered springs which are
stiffer still.

Syncro springs are much longer in the rears and much shorter in the
fronts while stiffer in both.
