How to get high load on regular springs

[Dirtmod13]

Rules dont allow bumps, spring rubbers, bump springs etc, so how can i go about getting the high liad numbers at 3.5” to 4.5” of travel?

Progressive rate springs?

[Mr.Kennedy777]

No stacking springs either I take it? Just run conventional and have some fun with the car.

Coil bind.

Coil bind.

yep , thats how we use to do it , was bad fast in slick , but , tricky and destructive.......

Got some ideas to fix all that, but don't wanna give it all away.

Maybe a hyperco uht barrel spring?

Could you on me? Been struggling after we lost bump stops, then spring rubbers, now we are Back to a single spring no other add-ons

Make shock mounts that are dampened.

RF, say we mounted the shock on a jack bolt, with no threads, in-between the shock mount itself and the frame mount put a rubber Bisquit. Pull bar bushing etc.

You could make the entire Assy shielded so you cant see the bushing.

Think about a smalll bushing type pull bar, mounted on the RF, and used in the push direction. If i get time i will try to draw something up.

[fastford]

it would not be dampened though would it?

[billetbirdcage]

Make a deflective top nut or lower spring cup and coil bind the spring, sure is cheaper then a bump or whatever (grins)

[smartguy13]

Why not use a stiffer spring and lower the ride height? Generally all we care about is dynamic load anyways. I’ve seen a few Trakstar’s use this strategy with good success.

Because deck height rules

[Krooser]

IMCA late model rules? As a former imca promoter at two tracks I really don't have any use for them BUT they have a good set of lm rules that bring this Stoopid world of lm racing under control...

Now back to our regular programming.
