Thanks for watching bro! The FP springs are not progressive. They are almost identical to dual rate due to how they are setup. So they are 530 lb/inch but after about .5" travel they go stiffen up to 765 lb/in. They are similar to a dual rate what differentiates them from true progressive is...
Does it cause problems or what makes it bad? I am thinking of putting the steeda rear springs. They said only 3/8” is required to get into the dual 1280 lb/in which means almost all the time. I wonder how that would feel with the ford front springs.
What do think the difference would be between...
The fp springs are dual rate linear (which is progressive) but it’s a lot different than a typical progressive spring. What is my hz rate at 250 front and 565/765 rear?
Awesome! What would my hz be with the fp springs?
also what is the advantage to 1.7 over 1.55? The only spring that will get you to those rates is steeda. The front is dual 220-350 and rear 800-1280
So I went to the Ford dealership to figure out what was going on in the rear and they were able to adjust it they said it was a little stiff back there and hard to get to. They ended up not getting the front camber identical. Steering wheel is perfectly centered now.
should I try and perfect...
The shop tech said the rear camber arm will not adjust. He said it’s not elongated in the subframe. He said he didn’t remove the but but the arm wound not move and he wasn’t putting a 6ft our bar on it. Has this ever happened? He said ford when they manufactured the car maybe made a mistake on...
Thanks for chatting with me about this! Do you think +0.10 or -0.10 would be more stable at highway speeds? I wish I could have found out what settings my car had stock. It drove amazing.
I want to have slight oversteer and good spirited driving in the streets/mountains and highway. Do you...
doesn't toe out make the mid turn and apex/exit more difficult? So I was thinking less camber in the rear to help give more oversteer.
I am leaning towards -1.16 front and -0.7 rear. What do you think between +0.6, +0.10 and -0.10 toe? Doesnt Toe out (negative toe) wear tires more and also make...
Another thing I don’t get is why the 2019 and 2020 have completely different toe and camber in the different owners supplements.
I plan on one of these alignment setups:
1.
Front camber = -1.16
Front toe 0.06
rear camber = -1.20
Rear toe = 0.30
2.
Front camber = -1.16
Front toe 0.06
rear...
Their spring rates look great. I just love the look of the slight rear (beefy rake). Also its weird because the front has more wheel to fender gap than the front. This would make it look worse that's the only reason I didn't pull the trigger on BMR yet. If they had .5 all around I would have...
you seem very knowledgeable and suspensions. In your honest opinion do you think that the Cedarsprings that I’m looking at would be better for the Ford performance? I want to drop but I want the car to perform like it does now. It doesn’t necessarily have to get a lot better as long as I get...
Nice! So basically -0.10 toe front 0.30 toe rear is really a great balance to keep the rear tight and get proper steering. I haven't installed the dealer handling pack upper strut tops. I have the factory strut tops now. I wonder if that's the specs my car has now? My tires in the front have a...
I just spoke with Steeda about their 555-8243 dual rate springs. Front 220 lb/in rear 800 lb/in. Dual rate takes only little over 5/8" of suspension travel to immediately go into dual rate 350 lb/in front and 1200 lb/in rear. From what I gather these springs are going to be very similar to what...
Oh ok so a ride height sensor reset/calibration at the dealer would correct this?
Here is the spec sheet from the 2020 supplement, can’t believe -0.10 toe out holy crap. I guess this is what my handling pack 2020 came with. Drives smooth and straight at 100+.
