Chris,
Going to the "Visit the group at . . " section at the bottom of the  email 
took me to a different page.  From there, searching on "suspension  spring" 
resulted in 245 email threads from this group over several  years.  Maybe 
the answer is in there.

I thought this had been discussed quite a bit already with spring rates and I 
think Steve and Frank had a few ideas about it as well.  I can't search here at 
work but a quick search should turn up exactly what you are looking for.
