[DML] Re: What springs and shocks should I use?

Dave,

Thanks for the tips about my vibration.  I will check the tire 
pressures and the front end components.  You may be right about the 
lowering.  New England roads are not the flattest, especially wit 
frost heaves and construction work that seems to always be under way 
on at least road I need to travel in any given day!  However, it 
seems that the lowering does improve the right, based on posts here.

Paul
