Subject: decklid shocks

Date: Thu, 1 May 1997 02:53:27 -0400 (EDT)



Hi All,

I need to replace my decklid shocks(supports), as the stock ones will

not hold the decklid up because of the Delta wing. I heard that certain

"heavy duty" supports will crack the decklid,  could this be caused by not

limiting the decklid speed as it opens?(which could be rectified by

moderating the speed with your hand on the lid).

Also,  at the Vegas show,  I noticed a pair of coil spring type decklid

supports. Are these a good alternative as well?-Dave Lee
