Swift Springs Introduces New Lightweight High Travel Front Spring Rate for Modified Racing

Swift Springs continues to push suspension development forward with the introduction of the 950-500-200 F High Travel Front Spring, a new lightweight 200 lb/in rate designed specifically for today's evolving Modified racing platforms.

Developed in response to racer feedback and validated through extensive on-track testing during the final quarter of 2024, this new spring gives Modified racers another tuning option for maximizing front suspension travel, improving loading characteristics, and enhancing overall corner performance.

As Modified setups continue to evolve heading into the 2025 and 2026 racing seasons, the 950-500-200 F provides racers with a purpose-built solution designed around modern suspension trends and the increasing use of bump stop technology.

Built for Today's Modified Racing

The new 950-500-200 F was engineered for use on the right front suspension in conjunction with a bump stop or bump rubber. This combination has become increasingly popular across several Modified divisions as teams continue searching for improved front-end control and more efficient weight transfer through the corner.

With its lightweight 200-pound rate and high-travel design, the spring allows the front suspension to load quickly while requiring less shock rebound control compared to stiffer conventional setups. The result is a suspension package that can help improve front grip, increase turn-in response, and keep the car more compliant throughout changing track conditions.

Proven Through Real-World Testing

Before becoming available to racers, the 950-500-200 F accumulated significant track time throughout late 2024. The feedback from teams testing this design helped confirm what Swift Springs engineers were aiming for—a spring capable of delivering predictable performance while working effectively with modern bump stop configurations.

The demand for this rate came directly from racers looking for additional front suspension tuning options. As has become a familiar theme throughout Swift Springs' product development process, racers identified a need and Swift Springs responded.

Ideal Applications

The new 950-500-200 F was designed for Modified competitors running a bump stop setup in classes such as:

• USMTS Modifieds
• USRA Modifieds
• Wissota Modifieds
• UMP Modifieds

For racers competing on slick surfaces and high-grip tracks alike, the ability to fine-tune front suspension travel continues to play a major role in overall chassis performance. The addition of this new spring rate gives teams another valuable option when building a competitive setup package.
