Small detail many forget.

Have you measured the stock bumpstops force vs. deflection? I'd be interested in a plot.

The reason I ask is that a lot of people compare their new springs or coil over spring rates with the stock spring rates, but if we are constantly on the bumpstops then the bump stop rate needs to be included if you want to make a fair comparison.
