Feel like sharing any more about this homemade fix?

I have B6 in the back of my head as a possibility as well should something render my KWs unusable. But:

1/ what would you use for equivalent springs to get modest lowering and stiffening?
2/ after having Konis in the salt belt, I really have to wonder how anything but aluminum or stainless would fare. B6s are likely painted steel, yes?
