Rear springs

Nothing so cool. I am not sure what type of roads you have around home but ours are deterating with road maintence only happening just before elections ! ..I am kidding..it just seems that way. The tax we pay on gas is suppostely go to the roads but when some politician was able to temporatly dump the gas revenues into a 'general" account, our government became hooked on the tax money worse than a herion addict. A big chunk of our gas price goes for gax tax...I think we are paying almost 1.19 per litre..multiple 4.6 = $ 5.47 or $ 4.50 for an american gallon.

My MG had a solid rear axle with rear leaf springs. Bumps and washboard used to confuse the heck out of it...best way to describe it would be hopping or chattering..mind you to be fair, I will be changing the shocks and rebending the springs this spring. i have noticed the same with the Duster.

I just thought if there was a way that I didn't have to buy some of those solutions and I could keep the cost down, I would move forward. I am suspecting that it is too complicated.
