[net.auto] Soft

rkp@drutx.UUCP (05/10/84)

I am looking for a shock absorber that will help my 1974 Super
Beetle ride a bit softer.  Now, before I get flamed by all the
"tight-ride" folks out there, I'm not looking for something that
will cause the car to ride like a boat.  I think that any VW owner
will attest that the beetle doesn't take dips and bumps and
potholes very comfortably.  I'm just looking for something to help
"smooth" out the ride a bit.

The suspension on it now is some standard Monroe struts in front
and Sears (no flames about Sears, please) Steadyriders (not Radial
Tuned) on the back.  My tires are Firestone Trax 12 all-weather
radials.

Any help would be appreciated.  Please respond by electronic mail
and any responses will be summarized.
