59 Changing Spheres
Has anybody renewed their front/rear spheres with the intention of getting a smoother ride out of an
early XM.
I'm considering using BX 500cc spheres in the front. Andyspares do a sphere for XMs called 'Comfort
Spheres' which originate from Holland (I think). They are supposed to deliver a softer ride.
Has anybody any experiences?
Also how easy is it to change the spheres - can I do it at home or is it easier to get a garage to do it?
Whats the procedure concerning hydractive suspension?
Comfort Spheres
These Comfort Spheres are just great - I replaced all spheres on my brand new (1997) XM which
presents - with the original spheres - a quite hard ride that makes me think of a BMW (I hate german
cars!). BTW, I also used these spheres on my previous XM 24 valves, with quite encouraging results.
Just don't forget to specify the exact type of your XM - it seems that there are different types.
