Better than cut springs IMO

Cutting springs increases spring rates. Cutting a coil or less drops the car about an inch, and increases the spring rate about 15%, which results in a slightly lower car with slightly stiffer ride... think H&R oe sport springs.

I am too tired to think too much about it, but I suspect clamping a coil together produces a less consistent effect on spring rate. I suspect that extended, there is an increase in measured spring rate, but the more compressed it becomes, the less effect it has on spring rate, effectively making the spring rate get lower as the suspension compresses. (I am not a mechanical engineer, and could be entirely wrong).

Clamping a coil together puts an incredible amount of tension on two small spots of the spring, will likely wear through the paint and cause rust issues, and if those things let go, will suddenly and unexpectedly change the vehicles ride height, alignment, and spring rate.

I would much rather have moderately a cut spring.

jk....lol

Came in this thread expecting drugs, or a firearm...or maybe even a giant dildo. I'm kinda sad it was just this. Regardless, still lol'd.

On a related note, quick story, bought my 84' about 6 years ago from a land rover shop in atlanta, they were using my e30 as a little parts running car. Anywho, the shop intern, or youngest, was mostly the driver since he was obviously the shop bitch who had to go get the parts. Well, upon getting the car home and going through everything, I found the classic black felt sunglasses bag under the passenger seat, and immediately knew I was in luck. Contents were: Kick ass glass pipe, a sizable plastic bag of "the marijuanas", and a lighter. I had to go back to the shop the following weekend to pick up a rear disc swap and a set of euro bumpers from the owner...

MFW I candidly gave the kid back his "tool kit" when the boss was in the office ...
