Bump stops with sammy axles

I've got rascal rears and ruf on my what was a 410. As I put the diesel turbo engine in while doing the spring swap I added a few more leafs from the old fronts to compensate for the little extra weight but didn't touch the bump stops as it didn't seem to raise it that much. Since then I've put samm...

Flexingly surprised !!

I was surprised today at the articulation the sj had. After buying my sj for £150 a few years ago I've been adding here and taking away there but apart from a quick ruf and rascal rears while I was doing the engine conversion I've not got round to concentrating on the suspension. I did add a few lea...

Re: bannana shape shackles?

Rascal springs went strait on mine with standard shackles. Only problem I had was on my rascal springs one end the eye was bigger than the standard rears but I just cut some pipe and hammered it in tight so I could use the prolly bushes I'd brought. Wouldn't matter if you got the bushes with the ras...

Re: What have you done to make yours better inside??

Haaa it was cheaper and easier than trying to source a bonnet bulge. And a sammy bonnet still wasn't high enough. Not sure how the wife cooked the turkey this Christmas tho.
