New Ultimate Suspension tomorrow....

[Drover]

Well I am booked in for tomorrow to get the "Ultimate Suspension".

Customer rate springs and match valved custom shocks on all four corners - all +50mm.

Just over a week ago the SVX was measured, weighed (each corner) loading assessed and test driven. These guys are very very thorough and so easy to deal with.

So it's out with TF rear springs & Koni raids, front Old Man Emu's springs & TF ProSports and stock steering damper.....in with the Ultimate!

How did you go mate?

[Drover]

I took it for a bit of a drive today in the Ourimbah Forest. Unbelievable improvement. So much smoother and controled over small bumps at speed and very comfortable. On the rutted and bumpy stuff it flexes effortlessly with a very soft ride.

The rear is now 12mm taller on the drivers side and 27mm taller on the near side, the front both sides up 6mm. First time it now sit dead flat.

Can highly recommend "The Ultimate Suspension", don't waste money picking bits of the shelf. Custom making springs to suit each vehicles individual wheel loads, then matching shock valving to suit spring rates, along with custom length shocks to suit the springs is simply unbeatable.

All with a life time warranty how could go wrong and probably cheaper than you think !

[justinc]

Great stuff! Yes I am very impressed with their service and expertise. And yes, they are way cheaper than you think....

Mate that looks sweet.
I like the new rubber too.

[chook73]

Did you get the weights Grant?

[Drover]

Yeah sure did Iain,

Front near side = 563kg's / Front drivers side = 559kg's total = 1122kg's

Rear near side = 716kg's / Rear driver side = 665kg's total = 1381kg's

Total vehicle weight = 2503kg's

(The vehicle was 2/3 packed for a long duration trip, including 60L of water)

Cheers
