Still want to see what's going on with the front roll rate prediction.
Great! Another question and suggestion.

The unit for springconstant k is N/m right?

I converted my Serpent springs from pounds per inch to Newton per meter and I'm getting values between 700 and 1000N/m which seems correct to me. My Mugen spring are also in the 700-950N/m range and they are labeled in Newton/meter.

When I look at you preentered data from the JQ, I'm seeing values around 60 which seems don't seem right to me (very very soft spring). Could you check that?

I used this website to convert from pounds per inch to Newton meter by the way: http://www.convertunits.com/from/pou...o/newton/metre
