My policy is not to mouth off at anyone since I don't carry a gun and I don't know who does. Better to shut up or get off the bus than run the risk of a stabbing or shooting.

I don't think it's the Bilsteins, I had them on my 87 300E for 155K and they were superb. The problem as some have alluded to is in the HD. These mofos are stiff as are many "HD" shocks- very poor...

Viper posts great numbers but is brutal to drive according to several pro drivers- no finess- just crude. As a street/part time track driver, I would never buy one but respect it's power.
