after 4 weekends of putzing around with this cobbled up spring tester i thought i'd start to get some hard values for the various lowering and stock springs. unfortunately the china made bathroom scale couldn't take the pressure. besides, it looked like i would've reached the 300 lb. limit of the scale if i compressed it beyond the installed height of 10 inches (front) let alone any further compression. i'm going to look for a good scale with a higher capacity. about 500 lb. should handle it. i'll probably have to re-frame the new scale unless it happens to be the same size as this one. when i do, i plan to comparison test the H&R and FMS lowering and also STOCK coils front and rear inch by inch to get some real world numbers for every inch of compression. watch this space.
