    Yep. The idea is to run one shorter or softer than the other. With your sample you'll effectively have 300 lb springs at ride height, but as the suspension compresses the shorter or softer spring will bind (coils hitting coils), thus negating that spring's rate and relying on the second spring, which in this case would be 600 lbs.

    That 500lb will be completely compressed and you're going to be riding on the 700lb all the time
