Reply With QuoteWhat PSI do you guys class as too high I used to run my Cruiser ute at 55 psi mostly.
Make sure the rear dampers and springs are in good condition and don't run tyre pressures too high.

Hows that going to stop the chassis cracking ?Originally Posted by gmarkw
The problem is big loads/bad roads and a length that has to flex (it is a ladder chassis after all, not a space frame or monocoque so isn't very stiff in torsion)

Missed this first time around.
and yes, they do.
Patrols crack at the rear spring hangers on the leaf rear end (HD) models, although far less of an occurrence these days as Nissan beefed up that area.
Coil cab utes break the rear rails clean off behind the rear spring perch.
Land Cruisers crack front diff housings and crack the chassis around the steering box, not sure if they let go anywhere else.
So while I'm one of the first to point out Land Rover pitfalls, the other makes have 'issues' in this area too.
