how do i get more travel out of a leaf sprung shit box
it has 2in efs springs (soft)
procomp 9000 shokies
greasable shackels
but still no travel
is it a swb thing

remove your load leafs, get long shackles, correct shackle angles and then get shocks to suit. easy realy

get rid of your sway bar huge difference and don't notice it is off when you drive on the road. my mk lwb did the same thing yours is doing now the front wheel tucks right up and scrubs so i put 2 inch body lift in but i'm running 33's so that might be have the reason for the scrubing trust me get rid of it ...........

sway bar has all ready gone

well get rid of a couple of springs, my front ones are a bit shagged so there most likely softer then yours so may be thats y mine flexs so good

dont drive an MQ/MK, or get a whole new spring pack, or deal with the fact that this model doesnt flew, its a load carrying vehicle


in saying that, i hav no propbs with flex in my front end, if anything i get to much and i keep busting my fiberglass flares from tire rub. but thats prob got something to do with having 33's under an unlifted MQ...

my jabber has more front end flex than that

get a GU

When you pull a leaf out maybe you can give the rest of the leafs a good clean so there is less friction between the leafs allowing more flex.
Get longer Procomp shocks.
I assume you have looked at drop shackles. They will cost more than your truck is worth

I have a similar problem... GQ leaf ute... also have EFS springs, which i am lead to believe are somewhat longer than standard, which means that longer shackles will allow more droop. Thats my thery anyway, and i plan to try it out as soon as i pull my finger out and make some :-)
