[DML] struts

[Tom Watkins <outatime81@xxxxxxxxx>]

I guess the strut experiment cannot be done with any accuracy as I have been using Grady struts for 6 years with none of the results you are getting.
 
I believe, that there is alot of guess work in the torsion bar adjustment vs. strut power etc... Mine have been "tuned" for the Grady struts by Rob for my climate (Maine). So perhaps this is why I am not seeing the same thing  you are.  Again, I'm in Maine in moderate climate.  If I lived in Florida or a Southern State would I see different results with Rob's struts?  Maybe...I dunno.......But with hotter temps comes torsion bar variances as well....so it's all a crap shoot in my opinion.
 
I don't think we can get a real definitive on this other than people's preference and opinion.  I found DMCH struts to be overpowered and slammed at the top.....maybe if my torsion bars were adjusted to them they would be fine....who's to say?  I don't do my own T-Bar adjust so I decided that it wasn't worth experimenting with other struts.  I'm sure there are plenty of owners using DMCH struts that are very pleased with them.
 
My opinion.......don't waste your time and money on this experiment as I believe there are far too many variables from owner to owner that cannot be taken into account.   A southern California car torsion bar & strut are going to act ALOT different than mine here in the North East.
