I'd have to agree with Owen on the spring composition/application. I'm no expert on springs but one has to ask the question about how many cycles the SS spring is good for vs the CuBe spring that Owen mentions. I'm guessing that the SS spring has a lower cycle life.

On the otherhand, even if the SS spring has shorter cycle life, it is ez enuf to replace on-car if required at shorter intervals than replacement of the CuBe spring. SO maybe go ahead and use the SS spring and just replace it every 3 to 5 years or 10K miles. Whereas the CuBe spring is probably good for 8 to 10 years or 60K miles.
