Mark,
I don't doubt the rate of the 5447's, or their bolt on capability, but
isn't the over all length of travel less than the original # that KYB allocated
to the roadster, albeit that the original shock # originally was slated for
another vehicle. I had a customer use these and complain that he very easily
bottomed out the shock even with new rear springs on his late year roadster.
Don't no if it's entirely true or not. Has anyone checked this? I would like
some imput. Dean

They bolted up just fine, and seem to have a good rate, but it will be next
spring before I can comment on how they feel......
