Suspension Setup For Offroaing A SIII

<< < (2/5) > >>

MOTORSPORT_SAFETY:
Thanks for that

I will have a look at the brakes once the parabolics are fitted im guessing thats going to be the concensus then go for parabolics.

The brake line I have run so far has been the chassis flexi to the T peace and the line to the drivers side hub, not done passanger side.

Id like braided but only cos they look nice and BLING BLING lol anyone got a good source for parabolics, and braided hoses from

Thanks gang top marks allround again

I think  " British springs " do them but I would surgest " rocky mountain " as in my experience they last a lot longer off road . The idear of parabolics is not for the more comfy ride on road but for the extra axle articulation off road . You could also try one ton shackles ( which are longer than standard ) to give extra ground clearence ,I did this and have had no trouble from the props , but beware every time you change something you change the handling caracteristics of the vehicle .  The last and most important thing is tyres . Good off road tyres will get you more places than any tinkering with suspension will  . Have fun .......Al

Hi, Mud tyres first, they will transform your offroad/laning, then, a good set of parabolics, job done!!!!!

Henry Webster:
If you are going to fit parabolics spend the money and get some decent shockers too as you will be working them alot harder.

We've used Chris Perfect parabolics to good effect on the racer with Monroe Gas magnum shocks.

Would also recommend Pro-comp shocks.

Devon-Rover:
Not here to cause an argument but where is the concrete proof that para's give better articulation? Has there been a proper test done to see which actually gives better travel? It just seems an interest that when asked for better articulation that para's are given as read that they are best.

Just a thought?
