This weekend I 'av been mostly fitting.... my new suspension

(1/9) > >>

Porny:
And I must say I'm very impressed!!!!

Standard strings (so no suspension lift!!)

This is the 'weekender' kits so comes with:

New procomp dampers (all 4)
New front damper mounts (external, rather than inside of the spring)
New rear damper mounts
HD front Turrets
Extended brake lines
Extended bump stops

And then to add to this (the next stage up  :D )

QT Front radius arms (-3 Deg in this case)
QT Rear Trailing arms
Full Red Polybush Kit
And a few other bits and pieces!!!


Being standard height (and thus standard rate springs) my 90 still handles very well (even better with the polybush set and uprated dampers) and still tows without any problems!!!

The -3 Deg front arms are usually only fitted to correct a 2" suspension lift, but on standard height they make quite a difference to the suspension and the way it self centres!!

This kit has also changed my mine about the 'do dislocation cones work/is there any point' debate.   IMHO with the correct kit ..... YES they do work, and make a difference!!!  
There is no way that a Land Rover on completely standard suspension would have got up the ramps!!! Or up the bank shown in the photo's without at least one locking diff.

And a few more.... just testing pics!!  :wink: (supension not at max)

The first pic shows max articulation with completely standard suspension as a comparison.
