i've just put a v8 injected 5 litre in my GQ, and it does have more power than the nissan donk, but i need to change the cam to give me more low down power rather than up higher in the rev range. the conversion i did myself, for the marks kit and the v8 and bits and pieces cost me $4300 all up, but ...

longer shocks will work perfect then, doesn't look like i'll have to extend bump stops either!!

Dam I am surprised that the 700mm shocks will go. So before we go doing anything, are you certain about getting the longer shocks and coils not falling out. So if you confirm, I will send you the longer 700mm extended length shocks and I will take back both the shocks you have. I will cop the price ...

I fitted a Dobi kit to my G60, 2" lift. Shocks were way to short and matched stock limiting flex a lot. I bought the kit from Glen Dobinson himself and when I called him to try and get the right length shock he couldn't find any longer ones to suit my truck. So I ended up selling them to a guy with ...

Extended lengths are correct, so it sounds like one of them is valved too stiff. This is a 1st. Do you think the good one is valved too firm for your liking also. Maybe a shock with softer valving would be suited to you better such as EFS shocks. Shane the good shock seems ok, hard to tell with the ...

GQ LWB new lift kit problem

hi all

just put in a 2" lift in my patrol, lovel springs (HD rear) and dobinson shocks.

when ever i go over a bump on the road the rear passenger side seems to jump, it makes the car shake :?

what could it be?
i wouldnt think having heavy duty springs in the rear would do this. :?: :?:
