Outer Limits 4x4 Board

I did a fair bit of searching on a couple of different forums and mostly founds threads on spring rates of coilovers but my question is..

Which is better suited to what i want to do?

I have a hilux which is going to have 3/4 link rear end and want to know what suspension is best. I'm keeping the leaves in front. After reading through tough tracks class rules i can compete in the 37" class with coilovers but only in outlaw with airshocks? Is this because they arent as capable?

I was only planning on running 37's and competing in the lower class of the two. Both units come in up to 18" travel (more than enough)

What do you guys think? emulsion (air) shocks or coilovers? or should i just whack some coils and rancho's under it?

Also is linked suspension legal in many classes for Tough Tracks?

You cant beat coil overs if you have the extra room for the coil od.
2.5 OD Airshocks are a huge improvement over 2.0 Airshocks but there is still no comparison to coilovers. ( 2.5 od coil overs is what you need, 90 over 110 coils is what we have set some hilux's up with now for tough tracks )
With Coilovers you have the added benefit of dual rate coils as well as the better piston valving that can be acheived from a monotube shock over an air shock.

Air shocks are only really any benefit if limited space is a problem.

Dave camp, winner of Tuff Truck 011 fitted coil overs from us and he was really suprised how much better handling and faster the truck is now over his original Airshocks.

Have a look here for pricing of coilovers and Air shocks - http://www.profender4x4.com.au" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

If you get the suspension blue plated, you MIGHT be able to go into mod class, but you are limited to 4" lift I think, coils, and 35s.

Stick with 37s, coilovers and compete in challenge class. Come to a meeting and get all the answers next Wednesday night 7.30 at Moss St international pub in Slacks Creek.
