Re: Make it handle
Rob, thanks for the spring tutorial, I recently had to figure all this stuff out for myself but your numbers come up real close to what I came up with so I feel way happeir with the springs I chose for my front coilovers. Im stuck with 7" springs in my application so I ended up with 1300# springs. The total travel of the spring is around 4" so Im hoping for 2-2.25 of compression at ride height. The arm ratio is 2:1 and I figured about 2600-2800 #s on the front axle.
Anyways, the number seem to add up but I have a couple of questions I wonder if you could help me with. I dont have scales so the method i used for determining the weight on the front axle was less than precise, does 2600-2800 #s sound right to you? Also, what do you think the ride will be like with those springs? Thanks for any input.
