Re: suspension update

[gus@xxxx]

I have the new set of four springs and new shocks from DMC Houston,
and they are fantastic. The difference in the ride and handling is
phenominal compared to the stock setup.

I, too, had a preference for a matched "complete set" rather than just
lowering the front as in other designs, but I have not driven any cars
so equipped and cannot offer a comparison.

I'm sure anything is better than the stock setup and aging shocks,
except, of course, for the cut-and-swap hack job.

P.S. I am in shock and disbelief that the factory-installed spring
setup is by original design. I even remember the bumper-height
requirements changing under the Reagan administration, which is what I
thought was the cause for the change in height of the DMC.
