rear suspension question

<< < (3/3)

Range Rover Blues:
If you go too twisty at the back without sorting the front out match you risk ending up with an unstable truck, so once you'vegot the longer shocks and stuff it's time to look at the front.

what im after is good articulation on the rear, what are the best setups on the rear whithout going to the expense of the likes of scrapiron's extreme kit

Ah so that is just lack of working damper :doh:

For good artciulation out of a box on a LR the Gwyn Lewis challenge kit is effective and sensibly priced, but on a discovery or range rover classis the increased articulation can cause rubbing issues on the inner rear wheel arches. Due to rubbing issues I' still running a "tempoary fix" which is to use shorter dampers on the rear with the Gwyn Lewis mounts, but still have the articulation on the front which is set up pretty sweet now with 11" travel dampers. So despite near standard rear articulation, over all articulation is still noticeably more than a standard LR.

whits:
thanks will check that out

Range Rover Blues:
Me too, the front end of mine is what lets it down.
