I think they did.....maybe you could have a quick look on Monday Croz.

got 50mm in the rear and 40mm on front. Looks alot higher at rear than front. :cry:

The ride isnt too bad. I knew it would be a bit harsher but they did settle down a bit when i put all my tools and gear in the back. Looks perfect for camping and shooting trips.

Now i'm the same level (if not higher) than most other fourbies. :lol:

That's how all pre '93(?) narrow tracks are Croz- mine's the same.

The Kings Springs to suit a narrow track are only around $350 including bushes going by what's been posted on WARFS. They don't appear to make any for widetracks though.



I ended up giving Ken O'Keefe a call at Ultimate Suspension. He had everything right there in stock. So i ordered a set of new leafs with Ubolts and bushes. Total including freight to WA was just over $900. These are 5 Leaf springs (4 + helper) at 6mm thickness per leaf. They give a very nice ride and im very happy with them. Need to organise new shocks for the rear but am finding it hard to find someone who makes shocks for the F310 model ferozas... Had a set of Rancho 9000x's but they were too big and were bottoming out so they came off straight away. Any ideas would be muchly appreciated!!!

I have tough dog nitrochargers on mine, they are great in my experiences!

If you are worried about them not travelling as far as they need the take your shocks off, measure the distance between the mounts at rest and then at full compression and then at full droop... then approach a shock company with this and ask their advice...
On boooooost!!
