Q for you suspension gurus . . .

I talked to Carl about these springs, main question I had was if they are straight or progressive wound :-k The company is outa business now, so that's a dry hole #-o But looking at the nice photos Carl posted, they "appear" to be straight wound :-? Thoughts [-o< Thanks gents 8) :mrgreen:

Here's one, Tommy's 635

Here's a shot of the Zender version, was already installed when Tommy picked up his '89, thanks to the holes in the truck lid, he never removed it :-k

Looks OK, some love it, some don't, but beauty is in the eye of the beholder :-?

Well, with facing about $6k in repairs on our E53 X5 that had only 58k on the clock and was not even 7 years of age yet, we decided that it was time to go #-o And the missus was thinking to get back into a car and scrap the SAV idea, so it was on to 5ers :D Bottom line, we will be picking up an F10 ...

Q for you CAsixer . . .

Since your 6er is an '82, which is known to be the changeover year, you may want to note if your interior is series I or series II type :-k

Will make a huge difference, as door cards are not interchangeable [-X
