+2" rear shocks wanted

exosteve · 27-11-2013, 21:24

Can anyone point me in the right direction finding some?
It was a while ago that I tried rough country directly and they said no

Ive got me spring spacers sorted so these are all I need to do another 2" lift
the front end is free

then my wheels will be for sale

to fit some 33s

I think the only mod needed then is the steering idler box?
oh and a caravan step so I can get me ladders on

Try Dave at Llama 4x4 https://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&rc...Mn9H8rKCkTA3Lw

Yeah Lamma4x4 but his are n20 +3" now

Search my threads as I did one about it, and the +3" part number

You'll also need dislocation cones as the spacers will fall out so do the dislocation cone lift

thanks

milners do a longer shock now for the terrano but I have not seen them for sale seperatly only in the kit.
they do a pair of 75mm lift springs and shocks to suit for about 180 quid.
will hopefully be going up this weekend so I will make some enquiries.
this is where I have bought my rear coils from.

75mm lift ? Bit much as the flexis and diff breather are maxed with +3" droop

this no good then?

Seems good value but 3" is a bit steep. Rear axle is easily sorted but the front end IS a bother . If you crank the front to match the back you'll have bits on your drive

I'd buy the kit and cut the coil down 25mm , simples

I'd do the dislocation cone lift mod, then buy longer shocks elsewhere.

elty001 · 28-11-2013, 11:07

or just fit check straps to limit the droop travel.
will see how I get on when I fit the springs.

The point is though it's a 3" spring..If you lift up the torsion bars to match then you'll bugger up ball joints, CVs and also have no droop

(Not in a good way either

)

wasn't gonna do much else to the front maybe just tweak the torsions a little.i know you are limited on the IFS set up.
don't know what the springs are like or what the compression rate is when fitted.i have had 2" lift springs on other motors but when fitted they didn't give the full 2" lift.
always got the angle grinder handy if they are too long and cause problems
