QUOTE(XionCity @ Jan 15 2011, 09:10 AM)

i dun think u will put double....i think ur spring might damage or u will feel more bumpy as ever, coz the spring got no free will to bounce up and down, due to being 'tied up'.
yet, ur car height will b increase more, and sacrifice stability....ur car then will b no better than proton cars when overtaking lorries and buses in highway..

thanks for the info

actually what i'm trying to say is using one buffer per spring... any different ka between install at upper side of spring and lower side of spring?

top side:

= <-- buffer
=

|| <-- spring
||
O <-- tyre

lower side:

|| <-- spring
||

= <-- buffer
=
O <-- tyre

hahaha... sorry i'm no good in explaining... perhaps above 'illustration' can describe better?

So if you put the buffer over the top part and not middle when you go over bump it'll shorten Yr buffer shelf life and damage your suspension(maybe?) so yeah.. One thing I don't like about the buffer is when I go over bump FAST..I can hear this "TOOP" sound..very heartaching sound And anyways know where to touch up our rims? I accidently scatched the edge of the rims when coming out frm carpark ya, the sound can be irritating sometime... maybe will try to adjust the buffer to see if there is any effect later
