Re: new coilover opportunity (March, 2010)

Mychailo well hi long time no hear,
I would like to put in my 2 bob worth. As you guys may be aware I have DMS struts which are great but can be a pain. They have bushes and a reverse tube so it is impossiable to stop the strut jaming after a period of time. They are also adjustiable in both direction, but the minium is still pretty hards so on a road car you nearly lose your teeth driving it. Next point due to these and other factors they have to be pulled down every 50,000 k to rebuild, that means I have had mine out about 5 times since installing them.

Based on the above I thing these look good, I would like to know what brad damper etc also is it like the Koni with a shaft at the top or is it like the DMS with a tube.
Tony
