    Hello to all. I am DMS on all the forums and this is my first post. I am not yet an expert on G8 suspension like I am with the GTO, but I am getting close.
    With permission, I would be honored to be a technical advisor to those with suspension issues on thier G8.

    Thanks for opening this forum

    Mike,
    This forum is a Pedders safe zone.

    People here don't run at the mouth about products they have not tried. None of the " I know because my wife's second cousin's nephew knows a guy who...." crap.

    You know, I am a big boy. to me, the the guys who make their flames to me, Pete and Pedders, do nothing but improve our status in the actual G8 community. Most of them are so out there, that the majority of guys look at them with distrust.

    Now for me, I always want G8 guys to challenge or question me if they do not understand something. Out of open discussions, comes education, and understanding. So I really want to be questioned and if someone questions something that I said, that is great, because it will allow all of us to have a greater discussion.
