ah that'll explain it. so with that in mind are parabolics more flat than the usual 'stacked' set of leaves? and what should I do when I come to replace em? add a leaf or a set of lift springs?

a budget of corse :thumbup:

My friend ran his parabolics with add-a-leaf - they had broke in less than a year, so id say go lift springs, as for normal yes they are virtually flat more so with parabolics!

On this photo you can see my mates old 410 with the parabolic springs, if you look behind the front wheel you can see how flat they are.... I suppose it doesn't help that he put +2" fangs on the front but they were flat even when they were on standard shackles
