Outer Limits 4x4 Board

ye its under sprung front and rear already running 31' wranglers. but as the problem of no reduction gears available for it i'll pass i think. but if anyone is interested in buying the rig giv me a msg

i've been looking at an '85 t/d rocky has 280 000k's turbo done about 50 000 ago 6months rego for $1000. i wanna no are they worth modding up? and also wot are commen problems with them?

P.S. are they complete shittas?

flatter the better more flex!

i am looking at buying a '93 feroza this week and just wondering if anyone could tell me about any comen problems with them? not looking to mod it up or anything just a work car.

those 4inch springs dont hav much flex and the 2inch rear springs are sh!t house they are just like having the diff welded straight to the body no give in 'em. and the shocks even tho ur only getting 4inch lift go a few inch longer i got 4inch lift on the same vehicle and i max out 6inch shocks ...

$100-$150 wers that? the wrekers up my way wer askin $450 each not recond or nothin

yeah iput the load leafs backrides a bit better

180mm to be correct, and as the thread asks about the springs not the shackles so stik to the question!

yeah the track bar is comin this week, and the shakle mounts are being moved back bout an inch or so, ther is a bit of weight in the rear with the sh!t arse canopy on weighs a f@cking ton

no f@ck me dead they are 200mm eye to eye

just yesterday i put in a set of IFS rear springs into my solid axle '85 4runner it sits a a bit low in the rear but doff bloks will fix that but after i cut out the 2 load bearing springs i was only left with 3 leafs in the pack should i add few more leafs or wat?
its got bullsh!t flex tho!

read the top its not like daved camps u have ur leaf spring as normal just at the end of the leaf spring u have a half a leaf spring up side down conected to the normal spring and to the body at the wheel arch 3/4 is one leaf spring up side down i think u r confused :lol: i think he is talkin bout ...

LOL!

but because my truk is is lifted the steering is sh@t house any way, it comes undone at the chassis mount i ripped the sucker out and hav been driving for the last week without it and get heaps more travel and no problems yet so yeah see wat happens

the adjustable torque bar in the front of my 4runner comes loose everytime i go 4wd is it really needed i no it could result in diff wrapping but is there any other compication with out it

i used boat rollers cut them in half with the lathe they look identical to the ones my mate bought ive had them in for a few months now and at three inches there hav been no snapped bolts or any problems there is a bit more flex i thuoght but like i said no probs

it could be a cruiser diff i dont no it came out of a hilux that i bought 4 parts but if anyone has any info i would apprieciate it. cheers
