Thread: Disco 1, +2" suspension, Shock mount relocation

re the rear coils, are you looking at getting max flex for offroad or is it a tourer and you just want comfort???

have you called Shane at Suspension Stuff yet?? he is the man to talk to and can advise you on a good set up for your intended use.

it's gonna be a bit of a hybrid, i enjoy a challenging climb but i do camp a lot, taking heavy trailers at hwy speed. in short as much as i can without the need for blue slip and not decreasing on-road too much.

the flexi-coils i have been looking at were from Suspension stuff, but am really unsure about the shock length and front end.


Has anyone had any experience moving a rear D1 shock mount?

Thanks
Adam

yes, but there is no point for a 2'' lift.
good allround rear springs ive found need to be in the 220lb to 250lb range, the fronts neeto be 180lb to 220lb.
if you want to run 10''+ stroke shocks then you will need to look into raising the front towers, the rears can be dealt with with extended bumpstops.
2''spring and shock kits will not need modifications to shock towers.

cheers phil

a big thanks to everyone with their advice, still not sure what length shocks I'm going to get, looks like another email to Sus stuff it is.

thanks again
Adam
