On turns, I see no difference but I don't corner like I'm in a sports car. Steering with semi passing no difference I can tell but it's not a problem. Ran into gushing winds and don't see any difference. So they worked great for bouncing problem period.
Finally a report that makes sense regarding theses "springs". They should only have an effect for larger suspension swings where they would be compressed, otherwise, theyare not in contact with the suspension members. I have seen a lot of testimonials making these units seem like perfect shock absorbers but they are just springs. Thanks for your report.
