dunno what model you're running but.....

ms65 - i've only come across 'cobra' as listing anthing off the shelf.
dear as shit though. repco list the fronts for about $240 retail or something nasty.

can get custom made springs for around $120 an end

you could get away with cuts on the front.rears oare a weird shape though.
umm..
so yuh, compress (ewww) or custom, the latter being what i'm going for.

or bags :wink:

for the old stuff, ie ms65 etc the springs are the same as old falcoons, this info can be found in any spring catalogue ie, download the king springs catalogue.
