+ 1 for 10 inch wheels. I had hydro on my S but went dry - lighter, no hyraulic fluids to worry about, S displacers virtually extinct now. It handled well on wet with extras like ST comp bump stops F & R and decent shockers, but I think it's a little sharper with the dry set up. I used the original S front wet subframe and converted it to use the rubber springs, and bought a new dry rear frame and trailing arms.

Even so, it doesn't handle near as well as my van which is also all dry but with the longer wheelbase of course.

I'd track down the last set of bags on earth to keep hydro in my car such is my love for it

I mean, hydro is terrible - I will dispose of your bags for you if you send them to me..............

Oh, and +1 for 10s.
