hi,looking for some advice on 73 mwb 3b diesel landcruiser!
What is the best lift kit for them?and which kit gives the best flex because the standard leaves are pretty hard from what ive been told.
Does brake master cylinder from a 60 series diesel fit it?
Any disadvantages or advantages of these?
Thanks

i was prety impressed with the dobinson leefs in my 75 . with some extended shackles and 2i lifted springs would work prety well.

If you look in this thread you can see what mine flex like.

Front leaves a OME 2'' 60 series rears, rears are the same but ironman brand. Front has more flex in it I think, rear that is about maxed out. I've got to get some custom rears made up I think. I 60 master should fit, most probably exactly the same as the middy one, since they run the same brakes anyway. Middy a great little units, tough, capable and reasonable cheap/easy to work on
cheers

great 4by, and the only one i'll never get rid of
only disadvantage i can think of is rust in the windscreen frame, but they make FRP ones to fix that...
most of the good priced springs will give good flex and lockers make up for the rest anyway.
