Ivan141 Wrote:Tthe stock springs are actually longer than the suspension stroke so they are preloaded, you can have a shorter spring but it wont have much preload. I just made some calculation if the preload spring length is 4 cm. If OEM spring has 125mm drop, you can count on some 4cm of preload in the strut. 125-40=85mm 250/85=2,94 kg/mm So, approx. 3kg/mm is max spring rate you can have in long stroke strut (for non-progressive spring!). With this spring rate you will have standard ride height, no free play in full extension and 40% more stiffer suspension. I’m not sure how much is preload length of OEM spring. I calculate as 4 cm. Maybe I’m wrong. Fun is not the straight line! |
