[urq] Suspension modification inquiry

[fdekat]

Hello ALl:

As Martin  goes "on and on" about how good the Bilstein shocks are, I decided
to try them when it was time to replace shocks.

I'm now running Bilstein HD in all 4 corners, with 'mystery' urq front
springs, and 4Kq front springs in the rear. Rides kind of high, but handles
really well, and not too harsh. "Very Firm" would be how I'd explain it.  

I like them!

If you had gone to Carlise, you could have seen it.  I'll bet Phil would have
even have let you touch it..  :-)

Regards,

=Frank=
