Well the spring is enacting prolly a couple hundred pounds of force pushing up on the plate it rests on, which in turn presses on the nut. I don't think that's the case.


Also, Thor, since I put air ride on my car my upper plates have also been deteriorating. The rubber bushing is starting to bulge out the top... prolly not so good.. they ride stiff as hell so I'm assuming it certainly does do a number on a car to have stiff springs/airbags/ etc.
