gold28 Forums Junkie Location: Madrid - Spain Registered: August 2002	Re: Mono Leaf Springs Wed, 10 September 2003 03:14 The problem with leaf springs has nothing to do with how well they work as a spring. For that matter, they work really well. They are durable, can be constant or rising rate and they don't break like coils do. If you really want to get finnicky about things, they carry more inertia than an equivalent coil would but compare to the unsprung mass on a road car the difference is nothing. The problem with this type of leaf setup is that it is doing two jobs at once and consequently doing neither well. If the vett uses leaf springs, I bet it doesn't look anything like the corolla set-up. [Report message to a moderator]
