[QUOTE="acourvil, post: 1121102, member: 33578"] I agree with what you said up until this. A properly heat treated spring does not fatigue from constant pressure within a normal range, it fatigues from cyclic loading. And the erector springs are loaded even when centered, although the load is less at that point. Doing what you suggest just adds extra cycles to the springs, although the effect is likely to be so minor as to not be meaningful. [/QUOTE]
