Thread: Parabolics for a Stage 1

Yeah, that's a Big Important Point that often gets missed with the Stage I. The engine and transmission point up at about 4 degrees, and the front axle points up towards the tranny. That's why they have the double-cardan driveshaft. Full-time four-wheel-drive can also lead to odd vibrations if everything isn't set up properly.

When I had my Stage 1, it had a regular driveshaft fitted - ie singular uni at each ead..
I also fitted extended shackles at both ends.
I had no issues with almost 3 years of abuse.

On a side note, I played with the springs after riding in mu uncles 2a with parabolics.
I found mine far more comforable to ride in (with reduced leaves per pack)
It did't have the same load carrying capability with the reduced leaves, but is was more comforable to ride in then parabolics.

Each to their own - but I would't but parabolics. Try your existing leaves 1st

Cheers
