Stacking left rear springs help!!

[Bartman28m]

I have never ran a stacked set up. I put a 175 spring in bottom and a 100lb spring in top.. My ride height is a inch to high on left rear and spring stack is not touching the lock nut in the middle...so do I need a lighter spring top or bottom?

Sorry but don't take this the wrong way as it sounds like you're a novice or inexperienced with a stack so a couple of questions as there are 2 basic ways of doing a stack with a stop nut.

1. Are you trying to do a progressive or digressive stack? The stop nut goes on top of floater plate with a progressive and under it for a digressive, which way are you or which way are you trying to do?

That has to be answered first to give you any advice or directions

This is for off-road but appears to be a pretty good explanation of digressive shocks vs progressive and linear. https://accutuneoffroad.com/articles/digressive-vs-linear-vs-progressive-pistons-shock-valving/

Am i missing something?

Doesnt he just have the wrong length springs?

If he wants a digressive stack, maybe he just needs to preload it.

[ZERO25]

Yeah, with that rate he's super soft. He should need a ton of preload!

[ZERO25]

Thats only a 63.6 lb rate. Somethings off!

I've run softer. They may just be too long.
