    Ironman Suspension.

    Howdy Guys , Just wondering if any of you have used or heard of good or bad reports about Ironman Suspension ? Was looking on Ebay and they have a 2 inch lift kit with foam cell shocks for $660 new.

    My Disco has Ironman in it now (was in it when I bought it)
    It is probably done 20k km.

    I would personally not buy it as I think there are better options around.
    For me the springs are far to stiff - the shocks, they ride OK on road but I believe there are better options around in a similar price bracket.

    I am changing to somthing else soon.

    Cheers
    Dave

    Hi,
    Have a talk to Shane at SuspensionStuff. I just aquired a set of Dobinsons shocks for the D2. Lovells do a 2" lift kit and can supply their own shocks now also. I do not think it would be too much dearer if not the same price. Ebay is sometimes Not the bargan you think it is.

    No one up this way seems to run IronMan equipment. Off Road it is very rough country. They run mainly Kings, Lovells and Dobinsons springs. That is not to say their is nothing wrong with the IronMan brand but have a talk to Shane.

    I got my 2" raised suspension from Shane for my Disco a few months back. I got front heavy duty Lovell springs and 4 Lovells gas shocks for $550 delivered. Great service from Shane.

    Cheers, Phill

    About to fit the Dobinsons shocks with SLS. I wated to go for broke and fit Koni at $1,100 but Shane persuaded me that the Dobinsons at $400 will do a good job for what I need them to do.
