Ive recently bought a Samurai, with a few mods to it
It looks as though it has add-a-leafs on, as there are 4 leafs in each pack, also it looks like its got polybushes fitted which indicates they've been off.
But also at the front it looks as though it has what I assume is stock shackles at the front of the spring, around 2-3" long. But on the rear springs, at the back of the vehicle, it has extended ones, more like 7" or so long?
However the vehicle sits perfectly evenly in height, front to rear. From what Ive read, long shackles arent ideal, but surely fitting short ones again will then drop the rear height?
The rear springs look fairly flat sitting in comparison to the fronts. Ill try and get some pics of it all in the next few days.
On another note, the rear shocks have been modified to mount in the centre, @45 degrees, onto a horizontal bar, but it seems they dont fit very well and if you bounce the back of the car, the top of the shock moves up a bit like the bushes are shot, i.e its not tight to the bar so rattles a bit.
Any ideas?
sorry for the long post lol
