Xtremeteam:


+2 pro comps on front - £70
Lovells springs +2 £150
LLama4x4 / Gwyn lewis rear shocks & mounts £125



think thats it total £345 for 37" of verticle lift on one wheel & an RTi of 1160

mentalmoshio sophs V8i:
thats the way why not lower the spring top down 3 inchs so at the bottem on the chassais rail and move the shocks into the middle at 45 degree and youve got 3 links set up for a bit of time welding should give 50 inches at least

 :?

is there anymore point for more flex?

if i run out at that i engage lockers & carry on!

Also the above is spot on for fast road driving & fast offroad driving,

BTW thats about the max for the rear balljoint  :wink:

mentalmoshio sophs V8i:
i ll try and explain .

if u tyre hits the inner arch thats ur maxium upsweep . all it is the turret trick on the front plus gives lift.

seen moveable rear top hat to keep the same height for road use. they use air rams or nitro adjustable rams.

as for the a frame joint it needs to become a cv joint type.

to give u an idea of travel look at gon2far lightweight one its about the same.

rear trailing arm is the most differcult bit . has to be removed for offroad and on for road use


if u had a drawing of an axle and rear chassais of a of ur truck

i could show where to mount the brace and place on the axle for the shocks

i could draw it in the plan stage.

the springs have to be secured in all the time.
