WTF have i done!

[Chillitt]

Didn't somebody turn a Surf over by putting the spare on the roof ?????

No, he was doing J turns in a supermarket car park...

[surfenstein]

are you going to fit pro comp es3000s or es9000s to your truck.front and rear??????

[Antony_James]

Me ?

[MattF]

Me ?

I'd hazard a guess that says yes, you.

[Antony_James]

I bought ES9's the gas ones back and front, and LC HJD 80's (up to now)

[surfenstein]

then young sir despite what anyone says,with that combination of shocks and springs,you will be able to throw the rear arb away and fit your roof rack and you wont have a problem.

[Antony_James]

Sweeeeeeet ...

[Hilux]

LC rear springs

Hi i have done this change several times now and had no problems, the main thing i had to do was lenghten the panard rod to keep the body inline. And Antony has been round and seen my present OFFROADER with them on.

Snatch is kidding. You'll be wiggling all over the shop at the slightest sniff of a corner. And don't even think about sideways inclines..................

You might want to add a disclaimer in very small print to this post.

Alright Bob, I got round to pickin up the Shocks, they came the other day, just got one or 2 more bits to pick up before i go for the swap

and yeah av seen Bobs off roader, pretty cool, thats what made me go for the LC's the lift looked massive...

I drove past yours the other day, sumone appears to have parked yet another 4x4 outside your house haha a big white one

why ? think about it logically.you are fitting mega uprated shocks and springs,designed to fit a vehicle that weights around the three ton mark,the es9000s are far superior to the 3000s,ok the centre of gravity is slightly higher,so i would fit wheel spacers to give a wider track and aid stability,pump the tyre pressures up to say 35 psi.and i dont see a problem,i ran stein this way and it handled like a sports car and thats without any arbs fitted.all that holds the arb to the chassis and axle is a 8mm bolt.between the top bracket and lower arm.and i gave that thing some shit round corners and i never had a brown trouser moment.

[MattF]

why ?

I'm just stirring. Got to give the doomsayers their chance to come in.

[Antony_James]
