[QUOTE="Goldchaser1, post: 581200, member: 9528"] Some good info there MH,alot of suspension companies wont go above 30-40mm on the ifs front ends now,to much hassle,cv angle and camber adjustments can get tricky..... Wally im hearing ya,we have 4-5 79 dual cabs at work,2 of them have parabolics and have been bashing around a minesite for 250,000 klms now,,they ride well,i cant see a build up of mud etc in the leaves,and they are caked on occasion when it rains,had a squizz last night at one it looks ok,only drawback i see is the underhang,could be worse if ya got leaves up front as ya say. Fitted a 2 lift to our dmax when i got it,i ordered 600kg constant rears but pulled the extra leaf to take them back to 300 s so i had options but now with our camper- quad and all loaded up she sags to much,just havent had time to pull them and put the extra leaf back in,not lookin foward to the ride unloaded either. Bit of a conundrum as threw winter we take off loaded up constantly but from now on its day trips out bush mainly all summer,rides a bit rough and with the extra spring back in well hang onto ya dentures.....
