Just wondering after doing Menai the other week , the back of my MK needs to definately do more work in the flex department.
How many leafs in your spring packs.
Looking at taking out the loadbearing leaves this week but dont want to loose to much height.
Any suggestions?

don't bother taking out the load bearing in the back... just cut the ends off them with an oxy - saves you dealing with siezed u bolts. takes all of 5 minutes to do
more flex in the back means you'll prolly end up rubbing on your guards - and the back guards are a bitch to cut cos of the way they double fold into the wheel arch

in my mq i am running 3 leaves in the rear and about 3 in the front how every my fronts can not hold up to the weight of the sd33 as they have sagged far too much though they walk like a dream
i think 4 would have been better in the front with the 3 in the rear
if you dont want to cut the rear load bearers wat i have done is pull out the load bearer flipped it upside down just so as it acts as a spacer and nothing else
one thing to consider is that if you do loose abit of height it may be wise to install extended shackles

I have 7 . I will have to put in the factory 3 one day( sitting in my back shed ). I also run a diesel if that helps. I ran 4 in the front and that was way too soft.
