Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Hi all just bought a 12/95 wide trac and love it!!! i'm in need of some new shocks as they are stuffed, my question is what shock should i go for? from my quick searching online it seems its between the rancho and the tough dog shocks, will be adding a slight lift at a later date, any advise would be appreciated

Don't but Pedders - they are rubbish - Bilstein are the best IMHO. Everything else ranks in between

The rear damping in Feroza's is VERY IMPORTANT to ride and stability on rough surfaces - if I couldn't afford Bilsteins all around - id fit them to the rear and compromize a bit on the front.

Still they aren't cheap but you do get exactly what ypu pay for.

P.S. Ive had tough dogs and waasn't unhappy but the Bilsteins are in a different league.

Hope it helps.

Search in the Daihatsu forums before considering Ranchos.

I had Bilsteins on my F300 all round and they were excellent.

Konis would also be worth looking at but I'm not sure if they make anything to fit? I don't think they did back many years ago when I was looking.

where would be the best place to get them from?? and what sort of price roughly would i be looking at?? i'd rather pay extra and be happy than have to buy twice, and thanks for the replys guys

Australian distributor is Quadrant... in Melbourne, even places like Pedders will end up buying them in from Quadrant.

Ballpark figure would be around $800 for the set. Not cheap, but if you're planning on keeping the Feroza for a while it's a good investment.

i run toughdog gas ones in the front of mine and toughdog adjustables in the rear of my widetrack rides really good

yeah been quoted 410 a pair delivered will be doing the rear for now as they are the worst and then the fronts in a couple of weeks, id rather pay the extra and get the quality got quoted as low as 78 each for kyb but id imagine the would be crap

yeah that would be the way to go mate, I ran a full toughdog kit through mine and it cost me 1400 bucks on the cheap side, that was springs torsion bars and adj rears and gas fronts. They are a good shock, are you going to run lifted springs to?
