Why buy one to make it look like a 90?

, its just a bit more of a challange in a series (no diff lock ect...)

Yep you can get longer shackles for a SWB, the LWB Mil ones are longer and can be fitted, you will know them because they hacve a bolt running through the centre (ie 3 bolts not 2)

A series does have a locked centre diff as per a defender, the only difference is that on a defender you can disengage it and you still have 4WD whereas in a series you use 2WD to eliminate issues of windup, hence the warning in the cab about running a series in 4WD on the road.

Quite agree re driver skill, Ive seen many a series leave a defender courtesy of better tyres and a more experienced driver....

ahh thanks for correcting me there steve, i havent long been in this game so not leart quite everything  :D  i thought i had seen the extended shackels somwere.

to be honest about changing the leafs to coils, i wouldnt bother, tonnes of hassel for not much, dosent seam worth it, if i was you, stick to the leafes, and try them, there not overly comfortable but you will be suprised what they can do, and as steve said a lot of it is driver skill.

hobbit:
If your not really sure go for a leafer first, learn how it operates, and if you want to progress on then look for a coiler, you dont want to really be paying out more than necessary to find out that you really dont want to go on with the thing
