gu patrol... drop shackles wont open
gu patrol... drop shackles wont open
hey, i have a gu patrol ute leaf, 5 inch lift with drop shackles. i am currently running neg 28 offset with 35x12.5 muddies and the tyres scrub on the chasis rail before the shackles can even start to open... can anyone help???????????????
ive got 8 inch shocks, so they should be long enough... yeh ive been told i need 3 inch wheel spacers,, since i have neg 28 ofset i was gona buy 2 inch spacers all round, but then the tyres will hit the front gaurd on flex up... then i was gonna put 1 inch spacers on the front and 2 inch on the rear... because i drive mi ute 10 minutes to get where i mostly go 4wding.. and apparently if the front wheels are narrower than ur rear wheels it drive shocking, apparently undrivable???????????
Supieor engineering state for their drop shackles to work (on a hilux) longer leaf springs need to be fitted along with approite shocks. I've fitted a couple of sets and found this to be correct. The front mount shifted forward and then longer leaves fitted. The principal for a patrol would be the same. Less leaves in your pack would also help.
Those who choose to drive in the mud do so because they can't drive the rocks.
i brought the kit from superior and they never said anything about longer leaves. i brought it as a kit from them sooo i dunno...
should i get 2 inch spacers on all 4 corners or buy 1 inch spacers in the
front and 2 inch in the rear.....
and is it true what i heard bout it being undrivable if the rear wheels are wider than the front wheel... what happen?????
cheers andrew
