Suspension mods are:
2" body lift
40mm longer King springs
Guard wheel arch chop
Fibreglass flares
Rancho RS9000 adjustable shocks
Rancho in-cab control
BFG 33x12.5" Mud Terrians
Polyprop rear bushes replaced with rubber
The objective is to aloow the BFG 33x12.5" mud terrains
to work properly without fouling the guards.
The rear diff has a Maxi-Drive diff lock and axels fitted
to cope with the large engine.
This setup works extremely well off road.
Things to do:
Maxi-Drive the front
Remove front anti-sway bar
Install rubber bushes in front with caster offset bush
Increase shock length with machined pin extenders to
increase the wheel articulation
