I am probably looking at this the wrong way (which is why I am posting this), but if one is using a torsion bar with coil over helper spring, would the amount of preload on either make a difference? What I mean by that is, if the coil spring is compressed (arbitrarily) 1" and the torsion bar is twisted 3", would that be the same as the torsion bar being twisted 2" and the coil spring compressed 3", as long as the ride height is the same. Meaning, that if the ride height is not even with the torsion bars only and one were to adjust the coil springs tension with adjustable collars to even out the ride height, would the overall spring rate still require the same amount of weight to compress either side an additional 1"?
In my head I believe that they overall rate would be the same. Am I wrong?
