Intensevil Forums Junkie Location: Melbourne Registered: March 2003	Re: Chopped springs Fri, 21 January 2005 10:46 actualy i've had a look at the formula that defines the spring rate, and if you do it correctly you can actualy have chopped springs that perform much better than the stock springs would. Its just that most people go about chopping them incorectly and go nuts and cut out way too many coils Spring rate = (G*d^4)/(8*n*D^3) It'd be pretty dman hard to figure out though because most cars would have progressive rate springs in them stock [Report message to a moderator]
