stay with the coils you have the HD coils are way to stiff for DD use IMO. I have a set and going to a softer rate but more turns coil so i can get some bump travel back

X2.. my old one had one.. didnt have any problems with it except the lack of unibody tie ins... got burried to the windows (literly) and the bumper ripped out of my frame on one side and crunched the fender on the other.. bumper was fine though
