[quote="DIESELDOG"] coil suspension sux[/quote]


care to qualify that statement with some facts?


I reckon both coils and leafs can be made to work really well but there's always more "work" involved getting leafs working really well - the more flex you get out of a leaf system, the more it becomes like a coil system, by adding more suspension linkages as the leafs get softer. how many coily vehicles have you seen converted to leafs? not many. how many coil coversions of leaf sprung vehicles? lots. if coils suck so much, why is this so?

no problem, go and buy all the hi steer bits from Snake, drop them off with the truck, then you don't have to pay for my time running around buying parts. prob got enough stuff lying around the the anti wrap bar.

do you want a knuckle rebuild kit with that?

new wheel bearings?

powder coated axles?

4.56's or 4.88's?

air lockers?

spacers?

38's?



hurry up or Carter might get in first! he wants a turbo at the same time too!
