Default hydraulic spring perches
Sounds kind of interesting, the idea is by making the spring perch a bit flexible it allows the forces to be evenly distributed and reduces side forces on the strut.

I've heard of this type of thing before. It's not snake oil but it has been race car technology in the past.
