Polyair Bags or Heavier Springs

Post by SteveC »

I have just fitted new 2" higher springs all round. When loaded the Rangie sags in the rear by about 1-2 inches (25-50mm). Is it better to change to heavier springs or to add polyair bags to inflate when loaded? Does the heavier springs decrease wheel travel?

Thanks

I have asked exactly the same thing.

I still have not done anything yet as a 50mm lift looks very likely in the next few months but when I get it done I will ask for an extra set of hd springs for the rear which I will swap in and out for trips.

Cheers Stuee

edit* not exactly the same thing.... :D

When fully loaded the hd spring will act like a lighter duty spring which is not carrying a load so its like going back to normal but it will not flex as much unloaded as the spings you've got now
