Eliminating Quad shocks

[mike16]

its in the valving of the shocks. 4 standard shocks will give it a very "firm" ride. Isn't there a separate part number when 4 shocks are used? many people who have this option either them selves or thier mechanic make that mistake

Not a bad option to have. Yes its more expensive. Hey thats the game we are in

Mike - you will hate be for saying this but I know the guy that tuned the shocks for the C/K/R/V trucks, from when I was a development engineer at the Milford Proving Ground in the late 1980s. His name was Bob Taylor.

keith, up to your old antics I see, You make statements that are untrue inaccurate or incorrect, you then attribute them to people whom you dislike and then attack those people for saying them. Youve done it hereand on previous occasions and on other web sites too. How origonal. It hurt your own credability if that matters. It hurts the website too if that matters.

Hate is a strong word and a strong emmotion. I have never expressed that emotion to you or about you to anyone at all. Ever.Dont know where you get that impression from. But its funny you mentioned that.I just dont feel that with you or your contributions. I just dont give that much creadence to your contributions to elicite squander and waste emotions on. Its just as easy to read anything written by Lutz, Wangers, Delorean or Sloan . or any other author who writes credibly about Gm. as for your technical contributions same same . I can get as much from other authors and SAE papers with out the conflicting attitude. where you feel threatened by others and thier contributions and resort to the antics stated above. You just dont do it for me.

What i do object to is that you behave like this here on this web site when you feel threatened and like over on the pontiac website. That web site is a pontiac web site about pontiacs, and pontiac cars owned by us members. If it was about you and your sensitive fragile ego then it would be called Keith Seymours fragile ego website, Same here, Its about the trucks, 1967 to 72 chevy and GMC trucks, Thats why its called that. If it were also called Keith Seymours fragile threatened ego web site they your behaviour would be justified.

Take away fron your contributions anything that can be sought out elsewhere with out the conflicting attitude and what else do you have? antics and a feuding behaviors. oh! and bs. Something we dont need here. You know the harm it does over on the pontiac website. Lets not go there here. Allow others to make contributions too and even if you dont agree with them may be respect the forum and the website. Try to see the bigger picture when it comes to others and ther contributions.

And another thing along the same lines. You speak in unflattering terms of several people (you name names!) you worked with and departments you claimed to be employed in. Thats pretty consistant with the somewhat offensive behavior youexibit here. You must be retired, I hope those people you speak so unflatteringly of are at least retired. Give it a rest, try to establish a positive mindset befor coming on these websites. You cannot control the outcome of every and all events.

I think I've said enough.

Well – here I was so careful to not put words in your mouth and I went and did it anyway. For that I apologize.

Alas – I am not retired but start my 38th year with GM this month and plan on being around as long as they will keep me - It's all I know how to do.

I’m afraid the Bob Taylors of the world are long gone; he was retirement age when I started. If I ever do happen to run into Bob I will make sure to tell him how vehemently you defended his honor. Knowing Bob I’m sure he would be amused. I think he (and my other victims) would understand the spirit of good natured ribbing in which these stories are intended to be shared.

As far as technical contributions: those flow out of two generations of cumulative projects and GM factory and engineering experiences. That’s not something that can be turned off and turned on. For that I do not apologize.

My original offer still stands: if you ever make it back here, say for Woodward Dream Cruise, I would be delighted to show you all the places I’ve worked (and a few of the places I haven’t). I have an “abandoned factory tour” that seems to be well received by out of town guests.
