Hall Pantera (and presumedly other shops like Pantera Performance) have =

adapted late model hatch/decklid shocks for use on the Pantera.  They =

take a standard part and add some special pushing for use on the P.



Hall has 2 varieties, one for standard decks and one for winged decks, so =

make sure you specify what you want.

P.S.  Apparently Andy DiFatta has been having trouble getting any posts =

which I send.  He gets the message, but with no body text.  I don't think =

anyone else is having the same problem, is that true ?  Can anyone shed =

some light on this ?  I am using a corporate E-Mail system called =

QuickMail from my Mac here at work, if that helps any...

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
