We've got the Fox coilovers with 300 lb. springs as they come from Calmini and while it flexes and droops out fine, it really rides like shit on the highway. I mean, like we're compensating with the turnsignals for the handling characteristics. No sway bars, and the steering needs a good going through after being wheeled for the past 1.5 years or so.
We did have one shock blow its guts out and had that rebuilt. Limiting straps were added to keep things from getting damaged from overextension. It was better for a while, but now it's back to its old ways.
This conversation now has me thinking that there might be an issue with the shocks/valving themselves.
I think I might bump up my tender spring to 300. I probably can't go much higher than that without raising the ride height.
