Stock dampers are made to a price. Period. They are far from
optimal... they do the job... just... when new, and don't improve
with age. That is, they are LCD (lowest common denominator) and
mediocre.

The factory engineers would LIKE to fit GOOD units. The beancounters
won't let them. Hence too the wasserboxer and transmission
shortcomings.

The better dampers will have a somewhat firmer ride. What do you
want, float and collisions with moose?
