palauoriginal Posted June 9, 2006 Author Share Posted June 9, 2006 is this all around or are they different front and rear? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMortensen Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 I think the stockers are about 20% stiffer in back. Bottom line: F= not enough R= too soft Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tube80z Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 Don't forget even though the rate is low there is significant preload on the stock springs. Cary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
