Springs

Hey Snarba

Yeah mate what i should have done first up just get longer main leaves 1.5 - 2 inches. Get all your old leaves reset a bit further wack in the new mains and ur lifted.

I ended up with a 2inch over standard kit. NOT high enough but this cost me 1300$ so i just got longer mains.. Set packs again.. fitted 2inch extened 75series shackles. Now the old girl flexes very well, I can gain a lot if a fitted longer shocks again.

In all 4 longer main leaves wont set u back much, i got all 4 for 100$ because they sat in the blokes shop for 4 months. Theres only one way to get what you want and thats to build it urself
