Re: new coilover opportunity (March, 2010)

Mychailo,
Yes I am trying to find a better strut, The DMS are tough but for me they have two faults they work in the up and down direction which tends to give a rough ride on dirt at speed & fact you can't fit boots over the top of the strut tube means it builds up with mud as stops moving up and down.
You may be right about needing a tougher one. I will know soon but I think I even bent one of the Dms which show what punishment they get.
Tony
