Another spring question

<< < (2/2)

stevethedent:
When I gave the advice not to paint springs, I was refering to normal leaf springs. Parabolics work in a totaly different manner. The spring leafs are seperated and use their shape, rather than friction, to suspend the vehicle and are painted when new. hope this clarifys the matter. boing said zeberdie!  8-[

Well, I analysed all the advice and scrapped my old springs and bought parabolics :)

stevethedent:
I'll bet you are impressed with the differance they make.  you have definately made the right decision.  :clap:

brixworth-alan:
well, as I've not gota  chassis at the mo it'll be a while before I can be impressed by them :). Finding somewher to put them in the meantime will be a bit of a problem...
