Subject:      Test Report on non HD Bilstein shocks on a westy coming up
Content-type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII"


Okay, I took all the free advice on shocks, put it in the blender, & made
the executive decision to go w/ the wimpy grade of Bilsteins all around as
opposed to the heavy duty ones or other shocks. I wanted to go high quality,
but not necessarily high performance cornering on the westy, so I avoided
the HD shocks which some volks had said were to stiff on the highway.


Bought the cheaper Bilsteins from the Ebay guy on Saturday & received notice
that they had been shipped today, Monday (4 for $228 w/ shipping).  I will
have them installed & report back.


Tom-this hole scenario has been "shocking" to moi
