If memory serves me right, the class would let it fill to 20 or 21 psi....

Yes it does Bradley, not positive what Jeff's thoughts were but if he needs to run the pressure up that high to get the stiffness he needs then the front springs are probably weak. With 20 year old seals the higher PSI is pretty much asking for leaks...

I agree with your statement there Bob, 20+ year old seals probably wouldn't hold up very well.
