Im lookin at a 2 inch suspension lift on my 85 mwb bundera. ive been tryin to research a parabolic suspension kit to suit. what im able to read up on says their the ducks guts. smoother ride ,better articulation etc. but a phone call to a 4x4 shop put me off abit. Has anybody had any of these springs fitted, and are they any good.

i had them for awhile, and think that they are one of the better of the shelf springs you can get, althou they are prone to bending.

I went for a drive today with a mate who has a 73 series with parabolics,now we both run 33s both 73 series both open centres and both extended shackles, the only real difference is I have rockcrawler springs and although the snatchie only came out the once I did most things with a bit more ease, not just ny opinion his as well

any more detail on these springs?
and to add to parabolics, i didnt seem to get mine "worn in" before sold them and car. were bit stiff to start off with, not sure about later. oh, reasonable lift around 3" over standard
