[Shotimes] SHO Front springs

[Mike Murphy]

The cargo coils top three  or so coils are nice and swishy....designed to  
improve the ride.  Most of the stiffness is in the progressive lower part.

A fellow sho Texas guy has already put these sized cut coils on his car.  He 
is very happy and the ride height is comparable to the Eibachs.

I have yet to ride in his car but it looks good and the "push down test" 
seemed  stiff.

A coil and a half is a lot for the front....I cut about that much off my 
original
fronts, and that started the 'Lowrider' legend....it looked great...the top 
of the
tire was even with the bottom of the fender, but the subframe hit the ground 
all the
time, the bumper cover took fatal hits from curbs and driveways, and the 
axles
screamed and yelled about being bent too far.....see '90 Helms, page 15-22-5 
for a
discussion.
