[QUOTE="OzzieAu, post: 565072, member: 4086"] Andy,its easy to over complicate your thinking when choosing the right suspension setup for a camper. I towed a 1400 kg. (gtm.) 8 leaf spring, 50 mm. solid axle, no shocker campertrailer through the Simpson desert and on to the tip of Cape York. I had absolutely no issues at all across all types of terrain.... because I drove to the conditions and monitored my tyre pressures and speeds. As long as you buy a quality Aussie built setup, be it solid axle leaf spring ( with or without shockers ), independant coil spring and shockers, or independent torson (Alko) and you drive with common sense, then you should be confident of reliability. As has been mentioned, steer clear of the cheap knock offs. Quality tyres are your best friends. :power: [/QUOTE]
