I put the front tender springs from a 4 seater on the front and put the front tenders from the front and put them on the back .

I did the tender spring swap and it made a huge difference!
You can make your springs you already have into true dual rate by simply installing a lock collar between the 2 springs,Without it, it doesn't matter how many springs you stack together if they are all moving at the same speed your only going to get one "rate".

Good information Chad !

Don't get me wrong, With two different types of spring rates you will get a "dual rate". which works good. But separated springs are going to act more like a "true dual Rate".
Money for Money buying a $20 set of lock collars vrs buying $800 springs is worth the effort and will actually give you a slightly better ride. I'm going to get the lock collars when I do the re-valve. Until then...This is only my untested opinion..lol

Isn't it going to be hard to tell what difference it really makes if you do the re-valve at the same time ?? I like to do one thing at a time so I know what difference each thing made .

Yes, it will. I'll probably never know the difference the collars would have made. But I'm wanting a bigger difference then just adding dual rate. Basically I'm skipping ahead a few steps. . Lol
