Not skittish on just bumpy roundabouts, skittish anywhere there is a bump and it isnt the rear beam bushes, they wouldnt affect it like this, its a lack of damping. Its not that it lost the back end, it fired the front up which wouldnt happen if the damping was even nearly correct.

I've had the same fk's as you previously on an e36 bmw and they stayed on for a few months.
As you say they are sh!tty ruined the handling and mine started to leak within a month.
They where bought as a group buy and i know of 4 other sets getting returned within 6 months
Eventually after months of complaining to fk i got my money back but it takes a lot of patience.
I would never but fk suspension for anything just don't trust them.
On the other hand Gaz coilies are indeed the dogs
