Parabolic leaf springs

Post by RockyF75 »

Anyone got them or had them in the past? What where they on and what did you think of them?

And where/who did you get them off?

I'm trying to decide on a new leaf setup for my 60 series to replace the saggy arsed originals. I want 2-3" lift, and as good a flex as I can get for an off the shelf kit. These came up while I was searching around but I can only find a company WA that makes them.

Also, do they tend to sag any quicker than traditional springs??

i use to run them on my hilux and didnt think they where that great and had very little flex but ive also seen them on a hj75 and they flexed awsome, very solid spring and didnt sag at all even after 2 years of decent 4x4ing

Yeah from what I've read they don't seem to be well suited to lighter trucks cause they need a bit of weight on them, so I'm guessing the back of the hilux was the worst??

Do you remember the brand or who you got them off?
