Yeah Tony - I tossed those tags in your recycle bin
- they are probably inside one of the Koni boxes. And today is trash day
......for my end of town at least.

Where is your chart? Is it a thread or do you keep it on your hard drive? I'd like to take a look at it.

What does Comptech mean when they say "the spring rate is adjustable?" That depends on the flexibility of the spring's metal, and the shape it's in - neither of which can be changed easily.

See the silver sleave the spring sits on? That part can either lengthen the spring or compress it with a few turns. As you can see it is a pretty big sleave, with lots of room for changes
When you tighten the spring it makes the spring rate firmer - it isn't a changing of the spring's actual composition at all.
Hope this makes sense.
