What did you have fitted? were they standard?, i didnt think you could get standard front shocks/springs for the 185... mine had a two inch lift and sits slightly higher at the back i think, havent messured it. Tony N did it and he did the tape mesure thing

i fitted new shocks and springs from millners , to raise it to normal. it had been lowered before it was imported,and the ride was to hard. now it just looks uneavan

[davemaxx]

new shocks and springs all round or just the back?

heavy duty or just standard replacement ones on the back to cure a saggy arse will push a tired front down.

allthough a different truck, i had the same thing with mine,
i fitted heavy duty rears and drove round thinking i was going to fall through the windscreen and run myself over. then fitted heavy duty fronts and it levelled up.

I found that paying the site subscription fee levelled many things out. Maybe you could try that?

'albannach' that was about as subtle as a kick in the nuts from the queen.

poor iamas has only scored 4 posts in 4 years. i'm sure your answere only put him off you though, and not his veichle.
