TW's service is excellent and his product is better.

OK I was looking at Tom Shafts right from start of this project (had some very helpful emails with Tom). I guess I have to get the angle measure thing out and send him the specs and see what he recommends. I liked that his DC's do not need a new flange thus in emergency a normal shaft will get you out of trouble.

I will also be saving for Superflex Arms from Mike - but Bumblebee is Nissan RA so that is easy off the shelf stuff for superior. Have to get the front locker sorted first I think.

But depending on how the rover ones go might get a set for the Rangie Ute. Both truck need to free up at the front a little.

Anyone in need or long travel shocks should look at the Superior Engineering AmadaXtremes . We are running these on Bumblebee and they grab nicely but were also very impressive in the speed runs in the weekend. Very stable and responsive.

+1 on the Amadas... i was also surprised how ridiculously good they are on higher speed stuff so should also make a great touring shock.

Took these pics the other weekend, just need that little bit more in the front...

Plenty in the rear... will also be interesting to see these extended rear arms, should alleviate some of the rear-steer affect.

BTW I should have about 20 sets of arms ready to go in 2-3wks max.
I will also do a few sets of 3" arms in the next lot which will be about 2 weeks after the first batch. :D

Greg,
Can you please provide a few details also of the raised shock towers, I just need to get this to my local road authority for engineering approval in principle.

Cheers, Adam

That's what I have, Low Ranger/Wayne tipped me off that TW could supply a (DC) shaft this way now so it's a straight plug and play setup, no DII output flange needed these days
