Just like shocks, springs are another area where it’s easy to choose the wrong parts. In our case, we were trying to work with our current swaybar situation, or in the rear, our lack of swaybar. Steve at RCD decided on 555-pound, 10-inch springs up front and 300-pound, 10-inch springs in the rear. Steve also points out, “Another common problem I see with street cars is too much spring rate. This can overpower the shock valving, and in turn, cause a pogo-type effect. Especially when going hard into a corner, the car can skip if the suspension is disrupted by a bump. And if the skip is bad enough, you could find yourself looking at oncoming traffic very quickly.” View Related Article
