I saved this exchange between Joe and Graham awhile back. Now that I
have removed the rear hubs on my 6, I figured I'd go after the rear
springs and try to eliminate the squat I get on acceleration. I
have the same concern that Graham did about riding height; I don't
want to sit higher or lower. Have others been as pleased as Joe
with the springs from British Parts NorthWest?
Thanks, Tim
