Its just undersprung with Carrolls springs, they are pretty tight and im replacing them with a full set of EFS springs in the near future mate. I dont want 'super' flex i just want a capable tourer

oh k.could you please let us know how the efs springs go cos im thinking of either them rockcrawlers or lovells 2 inch lift and run 2 inch extended shackles and a 2 inch body lift spring under as spring over is highly illegal in QLD and would stand out way to much i think

Hi Luk3y, The EFS are fairly stiff but do flex well, they give good performance on road ie feel direct not much body roll etc. They have served my purpose well my 60 get's used as the following:
50% Bitumen
40% tourer type 4x4 stuff and trips beach work etc
10% play stuff/extreme tracks

So if you spend more time on play stuff go rockcrawlers or spend up and get parabolics. I have lovells non adjustables shocks which are still fine and had extended shackles up until recently.

The bodylift will give you most of the clearance you'll need to run 32-33's 35's are borderline needing reduction gears and bigger than 35's on a sixty you'll do some serious clutch slipping on steep stuff with gears.

Got a set of efs under my 60 in the soa position. The front worked really well but i took a couple leaves out of the rears as i want flex not carry loads.

They work well now, very happy with how its turned out.

Just gotta sort out shocks now, Im thinking of going another set of pro-comp es9000's, had a good run out of the last ones.

Had a set of lovells in my old 60 and they worked good aswell, that old truck accualy rode really well with lovells and the pro-comps.
