The drivers side is so bad, it won't compress at all. As for Aldan. They were sold as an upgrade by Chassis Engineering in 1998, and seemed to work, UNTIL I sent them in for service. I got hosed after that.

If there is an available way to murk up a clear glass of water, I'll get it done. I'm hoping to try a time or two yet this year. The shock guy in Now Then has both sets. I should know some re$ult$ Tuesday.
