NEW REPLACEMENT COIL SPRINGS

One of the most frequently asked questions is “How do new replacement coil springs restore a vehicle’s standard ride height when they are lower in free height than Original Equipment units?”

The free height of a coil is important, however, the way a coil reacts at its “loaded ride height” is more significant. All Pedders coil springs are designed with a heavier rate than Original Equipment. The rate for every coil for each car is designed very carefully and is calculated using a “load vs deflection” formula. The coil will not compress as much at its loaded ride height, therefore, the starting height of the “free length” will be shorter.
