Might be the 32" tyres and 4" suspension lift and weight of the roof rack.

Funny, I had a similar incident with them, except I purchased the Bilstein +2" shock absorbers from them. The units they first supplied were the standard Bilsteins (even though I had order the +2" and paid the high price for them), it took a lot of discussions before they took them back and supplied the correct units.

Wow I'm impressed with the results, it's got me interested I might have to look into disconnects

Interesting results, the swaybars must have limited the travel a lot.

This is mine with ACE, 2" Dobinson Coils and Bilstein 994's & 995's.

It appears to be my brake lines limiting the flex at the moment.

Thanks for your comparison pics chris. Shows how good the ACE is- i wish i had it!

I wasnt sure as to whether or not the disconnects would help before they went in as i thought it may have been the HD coils preventing articulation in the front.

I am now super happy with the performance and the balance of the suspension. It will be enough for my needs, cant wait to test it out on a proper track !

No worries.

I also have HD coils in the front and Extra HD coils in the rear, seems to flex pretty well on the ramp, softer coils would be good on some tracks though.

EDIT INSTALLATION

I forgot to mention greasing the disconnect links when installing.
They are supplied dry and MUST be greased before use.

(For some reason i cannot go back and edit the first post)

Matt,
If you don't mind me asking, what did you pay including shipping. I assume you bought them direct fron the USA?

Thanks
Ryan

About A$200 including postage from Expedition Exchange.
That was for the set of two. I have my second one in the markets section for $90 if anyone's keen. :[bigwhistle]

It's good to see your swaybar contacts the inner guard on the LHS.LOL.

My new old D2 is the same and I was a bit worried.

I like those disconnects, so may get some when I get the old girl going properly. So much money spent so little time.
