You will have problems with the rear springs sagging. I replaced two sets before going with a spring that Ralph recommended. Haven't had a problem since.

I have shockworks on my fg & while I've had no problems even with them turned down they ride FIRM but it handles a lot better than stock & bump control is miles better. The pedders turned down was as good as a new G6E!

I'm.looking for something a bit higher. It's already on full height and still too low
