Breadloaves don't come with coils in the rear. I put on some heavy-duty shocks that have coil springs built onto them, and while I only measured an inch more height at the rear bumper, the effect seems much greater. The bus no longer looks like it sags in the rear, and it handles large loads much better. I'm very satisfied with them. -David ============================================================================ David Schwarze '73 VW Safare Custom Camper (Da Boat) Dallas, Texas, USA '73 Capri GT 2800 (Da Beast) e-mail: ddes@anet-dfw.com '87 Mustang Lx 5.0 (13.986@100.81) http://www.anet-dfw.com/~ddes '93 Weber WG-50 (Da Piano) ============================================================================
