Fox is the reason, they mark their springs differently than any other spring manufacturer in the industry. A 2.75 will work just fine on your DHX.they don't list 400# 2.8 I'm lost is their a reason why my shock is listed as a 2.8 not a 2.75
Fox marks their springs with the max spring compression at coil bind. EVERYONE else marks their springs with the shock stroke that the spring fits.someone always has to be different, it has to be.
alrighty then so the 2.75 is the same I take it,doesn't that short'n the spring though?
thank yo,do you know if it would be wise to go new or use?
never tried a ti spring before,I hear they last longer but how long.
would you people stop with this crap already..go look up the formulas for spring constant..there is nothing there that has ANYTHING to do with material!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!i've heard that ti springs are stiffer for the given weight rating. i agree that a 400lb spring should be a 400lb spring. anyone else care to enlighten?
un-wad your underpants kid, i agreed that 400lbs should be 400lbs. i just wasn't sure where the rumor came from or why it even existed.i agree that a 400lb spring should be a 400lb spring.
What you heard is wrong. Your second point is accurate. Spring weight is spring weight. Ti tends to be actually measured properly, where steel springs have a large tolerance. Your 400 lb steel spring may be 385 or 410. The ti spring is usually 400.i've heard that ti springs are stiffer for the given weight rating. i agree that a 400lb spring should be a 400lb spring. anyone else care to enlighten?
Good one ^^ ...kid....
