November 13, 200817 yr Air shocks are better, and you don't want firm for the trail - you want soft to conform to the terrain. All wheels down gives max traction. Too firm and you'll have two up all the time. GD
November 13, 200817 yr Yes, I Agree! ... My Wagons, with Front Coil Springs from a Ford Tempo, and Rear from a Honda, is Very Firm, and in Off-Road conditions (too Usual here... ) I Have to Drive Slow... ...Very Slow...
November 13, 200817 yr those would be fun on my brat, soft for driving around town, hard for takingit to the tack.

Too firm and you'll have two up all the time. GD True... that's what happens with my GTI when I take it off road (doesn't everyone take their VW GTI offroad?). It'll lift wheels up (hopefully not the front... cause then it stops But... too soft can also be bad offroad, at higher speeds, because you start bottoming out going over bumps. This is what the legacies seem to do more than the GL's... either they are softer, or heavier, so they tend to have problems bottoming out if you go over bumps too fast. If you've ever ridden in an old landrover... they have really really hard suspension, and do okay. Parabolic springs there do increase both the ride and the travel compared to stock.
