if you are local nip down with your shock and they will fit the spring for free.

You do not have to say anything. But it may harm your defence if you do not mention when posting something which you later rely on in quote. Anything you do say may be ripped to sh*t.

Dave, I fitted a Maxton spring, it's rated to suit my own body weight. IMO it's definitely an improvement over the standard spring, the shock now moves up and down :lol:

As with Benny's recommendation, the guy's at Maxton are also very helpful people too:-

If you are between 11-14 stone you want a 800lb spring.Faulkners are well cheap .Standard is 925lb and too hard.
