So it's going to be 3 link front and 4 link rear

10 inch front travel shocks
12 inch rear travel shocks

Dislocating springs with bumps stop inside them

All joints are 4 inch joints no bushes.

Should be cool

Yeh man, time for a change. There's very few events on anymore, so it's more a case of being able to use the car to its full potential at the events that are on !

Leaf springs and hard winching don't really go hand in hand from my experiences over the last few years.

To be honest he's doing very well still and I love it, this is just the next and final stage for him. That will be it once it's coiled I won't go any further with it.
