Read the Magnuson Moss act materials. Unless the dealership/SoA can prove that your springs and swaybar caused the failure, they cannot void the warranty. Ergo, if your motor explodes, they'd have to prove it was the springs that did it in order to deny you coverage.

The dealers do not void warranty's. Only SOA can deny a warranty claim(notice not the entire warranty unless they state so due to heavily modified parts, like the ECU).

However, the dealers can deny warranty service.
