Coilover Recommendations

Don,

did your 4-link have rubber bushings or R-joints?

And just so I understand your situation completely, you state "the harsh bang that occurs when driving over an abrupt drop in the road".

So lets explain this in extremes so we both know what we are describing, I can then explain what was happening in the real world.

So, in extremes:
-the road was smooth
-then the road had a crack and dropped 4 inches




---OR---

-the road was smooth
-there was an "indentation" in the road that dropped 2" below road surface
-stayed at that indentation for 5 feet
-then raised back to the previous road surface height

Scenario #1's ride quality is handled initially by the extension of the suspension.
Scenario #2's ride quality is handled mostly by the compression.
