Tony Posted September 2, 2011 Report Share Posted September 2, 2011 Bottom.... The helper spring removes any chatter from the main coil when the suspension is on full droop...... That's suspension talk not after hours funny fags talk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jammy Posted September 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2011 pmsl..thought so as seen sets of new 1s and there on the bottom...but also some come set up new place in the top :S far as im concernd the only person whos knoes the know in suspension is you mate up most respect on how well you have done with the centre too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted September 2, 2011 Report Share Posted September 2, 2011 Cheers.... Those helper coils are "coil bound" until full droop. Realistically they should be fitted in the unsprung area of the coil ( under the spring ) since droop will be during the dampers extension out of the damper body.
