Re: Bilsteins soft?

["Dean W. Cains" <dwc@domain.elided>]

Hi Steve:

Bilstein HD's too soft???  I've got a set on my '74 Spider (in Florida, 
where the roads are pretty flat), and "soft" is at the bottom of the list 
of words I'd use to describe them.  I'm losing dental fillings driving 
around, and if I didn't already have a transplanted kidney, I'd need one 
soon.  If anyone out there wants to trade some Koni Yellow's for my 
Bilstein HD's, speak out now.  I'll give it some serious consideration.

Regards,

Dean
