Dont just add weights, actually turn the tyre on the rim to see if that brings it into balance that way.

I'm looking at new shocks too, heading for rancho 9000x adjustables, a few ppl have said that tough dog can be overkill for the lightweight lux's, where as in patrols n stuff ranchs are underdone and you need the tough dogs.

I have a '96 dual cab and need more speakers in the car most probably in the doors. Just asking if anyone could post pics of interior especially the doors where people have fitted speakers and if there are already holes behind trim to put them in.
