Helper springs
Revision as of 08:50, 17 December 2007 by hbaumhardt (talk | contribs)
Helper springs are usually the 4lbs type that have no influence on the actual ride/handing of the car as they only provide some means of keeping the main spring seated.
As the ride height of the car is lowered, by reducing pre-load on the main spring, there becomes a point you need helper springs to keep the main spring in check (seated) as the suspension extends completely.
