<VV> Ken Hand saved the day more than once.

Most of you on this list probably already have had the pleasure of meeting or working with Ken Hand.  And his reputation certainly precedes him and he does come well recommended.  I however had the pleasure of meeting him for the first time, in the lobby of the hotel in Lexington.  I was introduced to him by Jim Davis.  We talked Corvairs and more specifically trucks.  I was having some trouble with the front suspension of my Loadside and have had this trouble for some time, having tried and retried several combinations of springs and shocks, none that worked.  Ken told me of a set of springs and shocks that he sells and that I would not be disappointed.  Jim Davis told me that he was trust worthy and fair and that I should try his set-up.  I purchased the set from him the next morning and installed it this weekend.  My truck has NEVER driven and ridden like this.  It is smooth, with a gentle floating ride much like a Lincoln.  It handles like a new truck and steers better as well.  What a great set-up, Ken.  Thanks so much, I am very happy with my purchase and I wanted to share it with others.  It was a pleasure meeting you and I look forward to meeting you again, perhaps at another convention.  Any of you who may be having any suspension trouble with your F/C, contact Ken and let him STEER you right.    I am having more fun driving my truck than I have had in a long time.   Thanks again.
