Hi Guys,
Thanks for the info on the Camper Trailers, hit the nail on the head...
Does anyone know much about Parabolic Suspension setups, are they any good, are they legal in QLD...
A mate was quoted about $1600 for a Parabolic setup on a '90 Hilux, fully fitted with greasable everythings...
Sounds cool, I have a MWB Cruiser and will be chasing a good setup soon...
Cheers,
Meldge

contact bob at allset springs in woombye
54422919, he can get parabolics and he has used them on a 75 series so that will give u an idea of wat they are like.
i used them on my hilux and they are a great 'off the shelf' spring for medium offroading, and they dont seem to sag as quick as some others.

They are like replacing your springs, so certainly they are legal.
they are also factory on some vehicles. MQ patrol springs to mind!

You may have trouble finding any and if you do they may give you a nasty surprise $$$ wise.
I think there is some supply problems? Could be wrong but that is what I heard.
