Guess i wont do it!

Dis right here.

Or they could, you know, break when they're loaded up going through a corner, then wheel rate goes to infinity, and you spin into a crowd full of children.

Isn't that usually called a flock? or maybe it was a herd....

Yeah, or he could just be cruising when the spring gives, both springs could go at one time and the ass could drop and all he gets is a bump and everything is cool. Or (most likely) the springs could go at different times. If he is at speed when one side snaps it could send the car into a slide and cause who knows what kind of harm to him and other people on the road.

Man, your on some next level shit. OP make a dual spring and revolutionize the spring industry.

[slammin.e28]

^ Now your talking. Lower and stiffer spring rate. I'm all about that.

'Zactly. Shit, maybe you can do like an outer, front spring with a rear on the inside?

The possibilities.

^ This. Ever seen what an E30 looks like without any rear springs or shocks in it? Driving it would be a challenge to say the least.

I've driven my e30 when my brand new RSM's blew and rode home just on springs. Can't say it was very fun doing so. Was literally bouncing with every little bump!

Why not try welding two springs inside of each other? Like dual valve springs?

Exactly.

Plenty of people run cut pigtail springs without bothering to weld them. I've seen some creative solutions, from wire, to self taping screws and brackets. Either way, even if the weld brakes, the car hits a huge bump, the suspension unloads, and the spring falls out, the worst that will happen is the car will bottom out on the bump stops.

Will it handle well with cut springs? Possibly not, but it certainly won't be as bad as many love to claim. And is he putting himself, or anyone else at risk? No

Personally, I'm just enjoying the thread.

Since everyone i against ill stop and throw them away! sorry for my stupidness!:-|

[lolcantturn]

WOW I love this place. We are actually discussing welding a spring back together?????

I think the term "is this real life?" applies to this one...

Am i even on r3v right now? This is just wow....

Had to recheck my browser and make sure I wasn't on any of the vw forums

Vote to ban OP.

I can't believe I'm seeing this .

Oh my. This goes even beyond my turbo M42 ghetto rigging days. There was actual thought put into this.

Yeah, gets better every day. JFC

What the actual fuck is going on here? Seriously.
