Bilstein shocks are awesome!!

 

[Jased22]

A mate of mine can do this for me, any good?

4 bilstien shocks, ome torsion bars and springs and spring hardware 1760 but will be cheaper if i don't want to use greaseable shackles

 

[navtruckchic]

Geez that's good. Link?

Thats probably not to bad for a kit with bilsteins. Ome leaf springs are known to sag quiet quick

This is the kit I got from Toowoomba suspension, free delivery to Darwin. Torsion bars are heavy duty and would of preferred standard, but they couldn't do. http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/NISSAN-N...=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item20f3c3780d

Is this your old bns rig Gordy

 

[rastik86]

I think my EFS shocks and leafs are up for replacement. Getting very squeaky and ride is getting rougher.

So here's my retardation kicking in...
I have 265/75 R16s so how do I work out if the suspension is stock height or lifted?
Lol
I know....

 

[bods]

That's generally why people go from the bottom of the rim to the bottom of the guard. This won't change with tyre size, only lift and rim size. Then compare that to measurements from peoples stock ones... sorry, I dont have any, but from memory somewhere around the 780mm mark rings a bell...?

 

[Jased22]

780mm from bottom of rim to guard Is rear lifted height

 

[bods]

Oh well, take 50mm off that then haha

 

[rastik86]

Cheers I'll give it a whirl.

I'm happy with the height she sits at. Still just fits in car parks with the roof racks on in town... The Patrol was fun being jacked but parking in town was difficult and even then I had to play dodge the lights and sprinklers with the uhf aerial lol
