[QUOTE="timetraveller, post: 176600, member: 456"] David, if it is possible can you find the numbers stamped into the base of those dampers.1447 was the standard ones and 1448 were the stiffer ones. Until I had sold a few and had feedback I did send out some of the stiffer ones as they seemed to be the favourites. I exchanged several back from 1448 to 1447 when people found they were too stiff. I also sent out 45 lbs/inch springs for all twins as Greg prefers stiffer springs. The consensus in Europe is that the 36 lbs/inch springs and the normal AVO damper suits most people and I have swapped 45s for 36s for some people. It is probably not possible to exchange them now as AVO has closed down but it might be an explanation for what was wrong. [/QUOTE]
