Re: Rear shocks on DS
If your problem is the ride is too stiff when you have no passengers in the rear seat...then you may have to remove a leaf from the HD springs. I think if you search the forums there have been several posting about this issue.

Re: Rear shocks on DS
Like TheBoss stated those HD leafs are meant to carry weight before they feel comfortable. With no weight having shocks is a waste of money because they will never be in use. Those HD leafs will never deflect.
Same concept as driving a 3/4 ton PU. Rides like a truck, put a cord or two of wood in back and you'll think you're in a Cadillac. |

Re: Rear shocks on DS
Yes, just as CTD stated. Unfortunately they are not designed like car shocks, but I did see a set of air bag replacements a while back that was suppose to help. I think it was on ebay or somewhere.
