Like if I put in 335 lb/in springs on my alpine, I might want to double the damping to compensate for the higher spring rate.
Theres little joy in driving a car with too much, or not enough damping of the springs.
-----------------------
How about buying the "Gabriel Adjustable 63329" shocks and experimenting with the dampening rate? BTW, I drive a S II, and looking in the Sunbeam Specialties catalog, there are different shocks listed for S I-III and S IV-V. Only Spax ($68 ea.) are listed as available. Does anyone have numbers for the early Alpine front shocks?
