Dont know about the Feroza but when the original speakers out to replace them with new ones the original 4 inch was only rated to 15 watts.

How long you use them shouldnt realy matter. At least its good to see someone who cleans their oil after trips. are you running an ARB compressor,if not what compressor are you using and what pressuer is it putting out.If you are is the pressure switch and the solenoid working correctly?

The four link would be very unstable in side to side movent as they dont usually run a panhard rod to centralise the diff. The three link would use an ...

Ive never had a problem with my ARB compressor,had it for 2 years now and regularly pump up 4x33x12.5x15 tyres and run the locker every trip. Have you checked to see its not in need of a service as you can get complete service kits for them from ARB
