can u cut 240sxstock suspensiontoo lower it ???

LOL, how on earth can a linear spring rate change...its LINEAR! The "wire diameter" and spring rate is the exact same throughout the entire spring....you take 10% off and the other 90% is still the exact same, you take 20% off and the other 80% is still the exact same...

If you cut off an "active" coil, it will change the spring rate. A simple search on google will tell you this. http://dirtbike.off-road.com/dirtbik....jsp?id=332656 first one that came up, you can search yourself for a more authoritative source if you like.

You win! I'm guilty of erroneously using Spring Rate as Spring Load. Once you understand that then it all makes sense...

Spring Rate = 11,250,000 times the wire diameter to the 4th power divided by 8 times the active number of turns times the mean diameter cubed.
