See, if you don't get it, you don't get it. It brings us back to my first post, that you were too stupid to understand. Go ramp the truck.
If un-retained spring er so nice, and gave so much more traction, why do we have coil overs? Why do buggies that run off-camber trails not run cones or revolvers? Why do they run winches to "tighten" up the suspention?
You're thinking about this WAY too much. The set-up sucks.
For every action, there has to be a reaction. If a spring is not making contact with the frame, it's not doing anything. How can you argue this? The shock is not holding force on the frame. The control arm isn't, either. Shit, pull the rear spring out completly and do a burn out. You will be able to spin the tire a 1/4 mile.....WHY????
Fuck man, even in NASCAR they are putting more pressure on one sping vs the other. Know why????? It couldn't be for traction, could it?
How about on pulling trucks? A sexy flexy susp. gives them great traction to, don't it?
Mud buggies?
Rock crawlers?
Drag racers?
Bull Dozers?
Again, it's a simple test.
