replacement for stock suspension

[HYPERMONKEY]

quite a few people seem to mention the rather fidjetyride of the 3rd gen compared to the 2nd gen,i do think the 3rd gen is a bit bumpy and you can feel the bumps more than you would expect.can you buy replacement suspension goods not necessarily a lift kit to improve this ,were 3rd gens always this way even when new.is there any point replaceing shocks and springs with new stock ones or are they just as bad.
my ride is ok but i do think the 2nd gen was a smoother ride.
es3000 all round would be better than stock for ride quality?

never had a bad ride on mine... the rear shocks were worn and a bit bouncy... but it's 8 yr old... just as expected.


the 3000's should be ok, i got 9000's on the back and my be a bit hard depending on personal preference.

Hi can anyone tell me what standard shocks front and rear will fit my surf LN61 1st gen as I can seem to find them anywhere?

Here in Australia when I search Google for "LN61 shock absorber" there's lots of choices. Have you Googled this?

Here's a couple of samples -

Hi MattyM... greetings from the 1st gen club. I see you're in Ireland; I didn't know there were any LN61 owners out there.

I sourced all my suspension parts from Rough Trax 4x4 and run a 2" suspension lift. Give them a call and they should be able to sort you out. If they say they can't, then ask for Barry and say that Rob at hiluxsurf.co.uk sent you.
