The S3 springs just didnt do it for what i needed, which was a smooth trail ride with my wife. after another really rocky trail for about 40 miles this weekend, she wasnt pleased anymore. s3 springs are great for stiffening the suspension and when the max is loaded up heavily, is perfect with them. I only have the 2 of us and the dog in there most of the time so they are a little rough when the trail gets rocky. cant wait to give them a test in a couple weeks! steve 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
