Question 1: In the table on the attached drawing, there are two columns with "rebound", but no clear information which is for extension-force and which is for compression-force. Please provide the exact characteristic required for each. Answer 1: Column reads compression / extension.

Question 2: The damping forces (damping characteristic) strikes us, as to be too "slight", maybe there is a mistake in the location of the decimal point in the number shown? Please confirm if it is correct as shown, or if there is an error in the decimal point in the number indicated for the damping characteristic. Answer 2: As far as we are concerned the specs on the Drawing Table are accurate and we have procured this item many times with no problem.

All other terms and conditions remain the same. --------------------------------------------------
