Oh yeah, we just always went to the junk yard, bought extra spring packs and built our own


The springs hold the car up and the shocks control the movement, right? Shocks FTW.


To a point. Spring rates are a tuning choice and do influence how the suspension reacts to input. 95, 110, and 130 springs can be adjusted to hold the rear of the car up at ride height, but the housing will react differently with each spring. Ever hear of anyone putting 6 cylinder torsion bars on the front of a drag car to increase pitch rotation?

The shocks do control the speed at which things happen.

If the results don't match the theory, change the theory.
