I understand that the answers I get will be subjective and I am hoping for/expecting that. However, telling me the spring rate is this or that # will not give me a better idea since I would have had to experience both spring rates myself. I much prefer a guy telling me he's used both and he thinks this one is better, more durable, stiffer, crappy, sagged quickly etc., than someone spouting off technical information. I can read that anywhere.
I'm simply looking for a decent starting point on which to base my decisions since my only experience on my own XJs has been stock & OME. Right now I haven't seen anything written about these 2 brands or others (besides Rusty's) to keep me from going with RE - except price. And on that issue, again I am aware you get what you pay for. But I can still ask around.
