Stipe shocks - wow!

[1930marie]

After a year of an attitude of, "I don't feel like doing this or that, specifically working on the "A", I installed a set of Stipe shocks this morning and went for a spin. I set the fronts at 1-1/8 turns out and rears to 1/4 turn out. WOW! What a difference in ride! Thank you and many kudos to the Stipes!

I REALLY lucked out, Minervas' shocks were QUITE good & Vermins' are even better! I tested them on the REPEATING Speed Bumps, close by. I never got around to adjusting Minervas', to mimic Vermins'.
The WIDE drainage DIPS, in the street, are also a good test! OR, whip the wheels back & forth & see how she does, "ROCK A BYE BABY"!---LOL
In the EARLY days, "they" didn't know that BUGGY type springs were NOT the best thing!!

lol... It was the speed bumps in the super market parking lot on a grocery run that motivated my installation. Every time I drove over them, I felt like I was on my way out to the ocean going over a Bar.
