Suspension for highway driving

[Woodrow]

No one is doubting the existence of a spring rate. It is an observable, measurable phenomena that can be described. The doubt may lie with the accuracy in how a spring's rate is currently understood. In which case more study, research, and testing must be conducted in order to refine the understanding.

And just like that, back on course

And that answer is in the realm of epistemology. Is there a metaphysics and ontology that can justify it?

 

[Rickyd]

Epistemology is an important branch of philosophy and everyone is employing it whether they know the word or not, but it is undergirded by metaphysics and ontology.

Wait a minute. You bust out epistemology and then follow up with the decidedly unsexy word undergirded?

Applying the abstraction of a spring rate to a spring as a concrete object transitions the spring from a universal into a particular.

100%, from Plato to Aristotle.

Has the OP ever come back into the conversation?

I was just looking for a good brand of springs that'll pair well with the Ranchos, trying to get rid of all the Rough Country

I felt the same about the RC stuff installed by the PO.
Shocks trump springs when we're talking ride quality. Once I got everything else in the suspension sorted the RC springs didn't seem so offensive. They have yet to sag, at least not in the time I have owned the Jeep.
