G'day,

I reckon we should give credit where credit is due!

Andrew put the comparison together NOT Rob!

As you can see I suggest that someone put together the comparison and Andrew jumped on it and voila!

Regards,
Rob M.

It seems to me that we need to put together a spread sheet that lists / describes the pluses and minuses of the rear suspensions
currently available.



I've been collecting bits from various threads and sites for a few weeks. All of the suggested comparison criteria are included
(even if I didn't understand it), and I also added a few criteria that seemed useful.

I've tried to distill the range of answers down to the most authoritative, but I'm sure some opinion has crept in. The "comments"
section is largely opinion.

There is a lot of data missing, and I'm sure there are errors. Air bags are a surprisingly contentious issue, but I hope this style
is a fair presentation.

Here's what I have so far.
