Default Why is it so hard...

...to find a review of Progressive shocks on the interwebs? Google just farts out a bunch of aftermarket parts dealers that offer a place to write reviews (always w/ 0 entries).

What's the REAL difference between the 412, 430, 440, and 812s? Anyone had experience with different Progressive shocks or know what the difference is? Are 812s comparable to 412s? Their site doesn't to a great job of delineating.

It is the duty of nations, as well as of men, to own their dependence upon the overruling power of God, to confess their sins and transgressions, in humble sorrow, yet with assured hope that genuine repentance will lead to mercy and pardon; and to recognize the sublime truth announced in the Holy Scriptures and proven by all history, that those nations only are blessed whose God is the LORD.

My GUESS is that 812s are just a fancy lookin' version of 412s. And 412-440 get progressively (yuk yuk) better as the numbers get higher. Would have been useful to do this research BEFORE I bought my 812s.
