    You don't need any more travel than that,if you can get the same travel from the front,keeping things balanced,then you are on the track to a broad grin

    Yeah agree Wayne. The jury is still out on my front Springs. I need to find something that is really cross axled. I think I need a Spring that is physically longer that will still sit at rest at similar height. Once I get some more time testing, measuring and weighing I will have a better idea.

    Tested the suspension on the 30 degree ramp at Superior Engineering and we took a few pics. The front shock bottomed out and the tyre rubbed a little front of the wheel well (I have already trimmed 3" off in case you are wondering). The front shock on the extended side had about 10mm more droop left).

    Rear end will work better once the spare goes on and fuel tank has more fuel.

    Just remember I already have home made GL extended shock mounts and +5" longer shocks.

    Not bad for stock soft county springs, extended shocks and a set of arms aye.

    I forgot to mention this is without a front prop shaft. Can't wait till it the prop shaft adapter arrives and we get it cross axled

    It is looking like it is coming along nicely Nick.I was talking to Greg the other day,and he said he was waiting for you to go there.So I guess all the relevant points have been noted with the arms.Although Greg won't be able to do anything for a few weeks now anyway.

    The bushes and rear arms don't bind at all.

    The biggest restriction on suspension is the shocks and the rear a frame ball joint.
