I will also say keep the SLS. HOWEVER ... I converted my 2" lifted SLS to coils, yes life is confusing, and I'm at the top. [tonguewink]

ACE does flex a fair bit better than non-ACE though.

yeh but im not ACE, but also non sway barred! haha and a td5 so we'll see!

Im a coil supporter as i dont tow anything, and im after maximum flex with minimal fuss so thats why i made the change. If i buy a caravan this mite change but the way i see it im at least 30 yrs off a caravan and it will be a D6 by then :wasntme:

i also need some facts how high can i go before i have problems with castor, ACE, NSW Regs, etc

also can you recommend what you guys think is the best option to go with and recommend me some people to talk too.

cheers

Dan, I really enjoyed my 2" lift with just the spacers and standard bags, its a great ride.
Match the rear with a 2" front spring with the poundage that suits your needs, I think off hand mine was 180pound.
Never had a problem with castor, Ace is fine with the 2" lift, 2" lift is legal in NSW.
I took my sway bars off, ACE lets go in (Low/R) under 20 km I think, some thing like that.Articulates well. And you still have your little button for the extra 40mm.

one more for the air bags.

although I was not able to find the $100 variety when I last replaced mine.

There is just no comparison.

Pm baffle for overlength bag information,, 4"++

and at just over $100au for a (standard bag),,
their cheaper than coils,,,

I would stick with the SLS, i have gone from SLS to coil, and the SLS is waaay more comfortable, and considering the SLS bag's lasted 200,000km (10 years) i think that its a fair enough life span (especially at $100 a bag). Also the flex isn't too bad compared to be honest, i wouldnt say there is much in it at all.
