Default Re: Help - Cutting Springs

It does not bother me too much, but certain roads I will literally feel like I am 'bouncing' down, depending on the condition of the road surface.

We have not been able to take a long trip with her yet, and was hoping to try it out on the Dragon, but had to cancel my trip. I will be interested to see if the ride changes when I put the OEM winter wheels back on.

I am also more than likely going to change the shocks this spring as well, and see if that helps any.

I love the improved handling, and would not trade that for the improved ride, but I am hoping I can make it more tolerable.
While I'm satisfied with my handling as well, I've often considered a set of Eibach/Vogtland for this very reason.

With the cut SRT springs, expansion joints will get your attention
