I'd hoped they were cheaper in the US than in NZ, but it looks like the difference isn't too great. I put Koni Special Ds in my 75 Bay, and they firmed things up nicely (I set them in the stiffer part of the rebound range). They slowed bodyroll down, so the van wouldn't have time to lean as far as it did with the original Boges, which were still functional. I wonder which is better, Koni or Bilstein? My Caravelle's dampers are very soft, and may not pass next inspection, so I'd better start putting $$ aside... Andrew |
