extending rear load adjustment re braking on gq

Post by Bingham »

me and the crew helped cousin do a 2 inch body lift on mav wagon. went for inspection and failed simply as we forgot to extend the load rate adjustment.

remind me the easiest way to do this. extent spring/lift bracket? and at which end?

cheers in advance

Stripe of Metal drill a few holes and move the bracket up some, usually around the height of the new suspension lift.

I wouldn't have thought a body lift would cause a problem with this though, engineer doing pcp ?

Is this the thing with the spring on the rear diff? how does it work exactly? put more brake pressure on rear as springs unload under brakes? Is it very important or :?:

Cheers :D

pretty sure it joins the diff via a bracket and spring to the body and as body lifted 2 inch it simple reads that there is less weight in back and i making front brakes do way more than there share of work..

basic 2 inch bracket should fix by sounds
