Thread: Superior Engineering Superflex arms for Rovers.

How have you found the quality of the Profender and Amada dampers so far ?
How well do the shafts hold up compared to Bilstein and Fox under gravel attack ?

How is small parts pricing, eg. pistons, shims, piston bands, shaft seals, etc. ?

Might be interested in a few, have some damping things I've always wanted to try out and these might be a cost effective way of doing it.

They are available in std and holey! for those that want the extra flex. The chassis end also uses a bush with slightly more rubber, they also allow the use of billet cup washers and spacer to move the front diff forward if required, as cheap upgrades.

For shocks I have some awesome upgrades and at prices that will blow many away. I am hoping to sort out - adjustable remote res profenders for around $325 each .(same build as the TF 11") Also looking at Amada remote res (similar to patrol) for under $300. Sizing will START at 9" travel and go well over 12".

How does that sound?

Greg,
That sounds like exactly what I would expect from you :-)

Cheers.

original Amada shafts were s45c, late models are s50c. So same material and quality as the others. Profender are usually seen in rovers with the initials T___F___ stuck on them except we do them with adjusters on the res as well!! As far as lasting in Oz there are thousands of them being punished under 3+ton patrols and cruisers.
Parts are all in stock, as well as all the shims for tuning. I have even sorted out a small nitrogen charge kit for the guys that want to tune / refresh the shocks themselves. http://www.superiorengineering.com.a...a7f7e4954d5f8f






hope that helps.

Cheers, thanks for that.
Clever nitro charger, but I have bottles, reg, etc, thanks

Just to check;
-What bushes are they in the arms at the diff end?
-What bushes are used at the chassis end?
-Are you developing shocks to compliment the extra travel?

Cheers, Looking forward to hearing from you,
Adam.

look like gu patrol bushes to me.

also will they be sold in std castor?

yeah not quite! the ones in the pics are custom made for us and have a 'rover' size'ish center pin.

A Question for you guys: what lift sizes are most popular? I have done 0,2,3,4 so far but is 5 and 6 going to be an overkill.

cheers
