View Full Version : Do ALL shocks/coilovers settle?

Just wondering if all springs and coliovers eventually settle whether they are OEM or aftermarket? I never noticed if my old Suzuki Samurai's stock springs settled or not... :neutral:
If they all do, is there a standard settle rate that can be expected or is related to the spring rate or expected drop?
Thanks!

I have no idea if this is true, but when I talked to a tech at Ground Control on the phone, he said that there was no settle on "linear" springs.

Thanks Minsk!

In your install of the GroundControls what was the least amount of drop you can dial in? The SLstore says 1/2 inch. Also, did you get them in a specific spring rate and were you able to choose whether they were progressive or linear?

Congratulations again on the clean ride!
