Thanks guys for the help, All I want is a shock spring, not a flame war. Just out of curiousity there, uh, vic...why didn't you also post the thread where I was told to " put a cork in it"? Do you have some personal axe to grind, because if you do I'm not interested, again, all I want is my shock spring. BTW, don't expect a reply no matter what you feel is aproppriate to say about me and my character because I said I wasn't going to discuss the issue here and that's that. If you feel such a compelling urge to critisize me then please feel free to join me at www.cycleworld.com where we will be on equal footing and free to say what we please.
