I am getting ready to upgrade my suspension and I am contemplating between the 440's and the 418's. I like the looks of the 418's better than the 440's but was wandering if anyone else out there are using the 418's. I tried calling Progressive today but I just keep getting some guys answering machine. Doesn't anybody work out there in California? Every time I call a company in California I have a real good chance of getting an answering machine or no response at all. And yes I am taking into account the 3 hour time difference. Any reviews or thoughts on the shocks would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Ron
