Yep  :y

Not listed by balance motor sports but I see it's half price! There is surely a big difference in terms of ride quality... no?

sorry to pick up this old-ish thread but do either of you have a pic on the Steinmetz springs? Also, should the B8 be the preferred choice on lowering with the shortened stroke piston - shocking price though!!

We fitted a pair of these dampers for charity to a 1987 Fiat Panda 4x4 which successfully completed a 8000 mile trip over the roughest terrain from UK to Mongolia

what more recommendation do you need?!  ;D
