I don't know what Andrew owns, apart from a couple of S123's. What's
option B, Andrew buys new springs for his car, which may be getting
pricey due to being exclusive to the S123 (and I think even in the S123
there where several different springs available).
Pays to get em put in and finds that they where not the problem.
Anyway if anyone is going to be working under a car they should own four
good axle stands and have some sort of jack to get the car onto them.

who owns six axle stands and three trolley jacks, plus has the proper
spring tool

Great idea! If Andrew owns a floor jack and a couple sets of axle stands
(Four total), he can take the springs from the good car and install in bad
car to see if the problem is solved.
Easy-peasy to swap them, loosen the strut mounts at the bottom, jack up the
rear at the differential and the springs basically fall out. Reverse
procedure to install.

So can't you swap springs from the 83 to 85?
The SLS relies on both the springs and struts to share the load, so
essentially if your spring is weak more load is carried on the struts.
