Is the stiffness ratio dependant upon the distance of the deflection? If you replace a set of linear springs with a progressive rate of same 'rating' then I would assume the stiffness ratio to change over the length of the deflection. Does this mean, from the equations you posted, that you'd have to average the stiffness of the progressive spring over the deflection distance in order to be able to plug it into the equation to find out the extra damping requirement?
...and also, if you have a set of springs that were installed prior to you owning the car (like mine were), how do you measure the rating of the spring? Is something that you have to take to a suspension shop to get done or is there a simple home recipe?
Cheers,
Dan
