[T3] Shocks and my butt


Finally got an opportunity to install my Bilistein shocks on the rear of
my car!  The p=8²Òshocks were a pair of  "Kick Your Butt" gas
adjust.  What a difference!  The new shocks actually absorb the
bumps...Even speed bumps are easier.  As to cornering, they are great
too.  The secret is the way they load up, they are softer for the first
2 inches of travel then they stiffen up like the KYBs start out.  I am
very happy with my new addition!!!

Also, on the issue of new rubber vs. stainless brake lines.  I have use
both extensively in both car and motorcyle applications and the
stainless lines have always out performed the rubber lines.
However...for everyday, non-aggressive driving, the new rubber lines are
just what you need.  I tend to push hard in the turns and in the hills,
so I use the stainless, but they aren't necessary for my trips to the
store.
