Our replacement SSL coils over springs suspension units for the Plus Six have arrived in NZ. Well done Dan of SSL, and LiBrands.
Our decision to replace units, that should have lasted say 20 years, has been driven not by wanting better handling but rather that we don’t want to be the human guinea pigs to test a deteriorating suspension to the point of collapse. We want to drive round the country without a nagging fear that we could be in an accident that we could have prevented. I don’t think the situation is greatly different to the brake master cylinder failure in that we did report to our dealer and Morgan that there was a problem with the brakes and failure could occur. It was AND is just a question of when?
With fitting scheduled for next week I’ll keep you all informed on how the adjustable spring platforms on our new coil over damper units improves the ride height. I don’t expect to be able to scale tall buildings; but rather clear road speed bumps!
