ScottKE1X Posted May 6, 2006 Report Share Posted May 6, 2006 Seeing I happened to have a set of all these springs in my shed I figured Id post up a pic to show the difference btween them. The ke10 ones are on the right, ke20's in the middle and ke70's on the left. They all have a overall diameter of 125mm The ke70 and ke20 coil thickness is 11mm, the ke10's are 8mm. The ke70 and ke20 are very simular, the ke70 just having more rotations and that flat spot on the bottom. Their simularities could lead one to think that you could use ke20 coils to lower a ke70? get lowered ke20 ones and you'd be set! no cutting required. Scott.

love ke70 Posted May 7, 2006 Report Share Posted May 7, 2006 i like your thinking...but no. the more rotations the stiffer the spring, so lowered ke70 springs into a ke20 would you give you awesome stiff suspension, but stock ke20 springs into ke70 is gonna make for a sloppy ride i love the pic tho! great thinking :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Felix Posted May 7, 2006 Report Share Posted May 7, 2006 the fewer the active coils, the higher the spring rate-all other things being equal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
