Now that's interesting, thanks, Slepysal. I was also wondering if t-bars work like progressive springs (more they're loaded the higher the rate, less they're loaded the softer). When you backed off the pre-load did the ride soften up?[/QUOTE]

you know ,the ride is not bad at all. It is a bit ruff , but it dosnt feal like a "boat" One thing to keep in mind that unlike cuttin coils, if you dont like the ride, you can re adjust them with a few turns of your wrench . here is how mine sits
