    what rear shocks?

    My Willy has 172 front setup, which ( i think) eibach proline springs and genuine new Renault 172 front shockers.

    The rear is standard setup, bar a slightly lowered torsion bar.

    As the front is razor sharp turn in, the rear has trouble keeping up - and it is also a bit too soft, what rear shockers do you guys think would compliment the stiffer front end?

    I would imagine adjustables will be best, so I can have a play around with the settings

    I love my FK's but they aren't adjustable so pretty firm, about to swap onto the fully adjustable leda's though so will see how they do
