Re: My new Penskes are in!

Thanks Bill! They work better than they look. I am frankly amazed how much better they are than even my older Penske 8100's. I think one thing that is overlooked in the shock discussion is that the better shocks like these have a wider operating range than a simple shock. It is analogous to a speaker system having a bass, mid, and tweeter to cover the full range of notes in music. It is the same thing here where the suspension has to control low speed (shock shaft speed, not vehicle) like body roll, and high speed like potholes, ripple bumps while braking, etc. It is also very convenient to be able to access any adjustment (except ride height) while on the car and not have to remove the wheels.
