I can only remember the fronts, which are softer than the AE blues but harder than AE silver (next one down from blue) from what I can remember. This is holding both springs against each other and compressing them in the hand to see which one compressed first.
is there anything I can do about the rear body post ? Have I used a wrong part ?!? seems a bit silly that the rear of the shell is so low. I really don't want to cut it again
