Bull bar / Suspension question

Post by ShinyDiscoBalls »

Hello again,

When adding a steel bull bar should I upgrade the front suspension to cope with the extra weight immediately or will the stock suspension be able to cope for say 2 to 3 months?

Measure the distance between your bump-stops, put the bull-bar on and measure again. Unless your springs and shocks are dead already, you should be fine for at least a few months.

I just put an ARB steel winch bar on my Rangie, no noticeable difference in handling or height. Looks better now though.

Hopefully more reliable than my rangie...
