Bending - Spring wrap in the front

Post by nicbeer »

Hey,

Had a look at the zook the other day. it seems i am managing to S the front springs (1/2 RUF arb medium rears)

too much power and locker? or too soft spring and tramping

You can either add more or longer helper leafs (Worked for me, but only cos my zook heavy and needed em anyway), or http://www.outerlimits4x4.com/ftopic177362.php

They do, its just harder on the front due to lack of room.

Yours would have more power than mine had Nic, but I ran HD OME rears up front as they have a full length second leaf.

The rest of the packs were a bit mix and match but I think I had 5 leaves DS, 4 leaves PS and no overload leaves. Tried plenty of combos and found that was what made mine handle and drive best. Alloy bar, no winch to give you an idea of weight.

not ideal but you could throw a wedge inthe front leaf pack to just eliminate the shaft vibrations? lol
