shock trouble.

[dmartinmayes]

i have cut the back of my mav off to have a bit of fun, this means that the articulation is pritty insaine. i want it to be more but dont know where to go now. need longer shocks and springs... anything i can take off the make it have more twist :lol

Anti roll bar to start with :thumb2
Longer shocks as you say is the only way to go with longer coils and or spacers and disslocators:thumbs
Are you using for offroad stuff only?
If so bin the front ARB too as that will free up the front a bit

 

[dmartinmayes]

it is a trailer to event car...doing it on the cheap as had many other off roaders. i am struggling to find extended shocks for the read. i have taken the arbs off already
i can make some dislocation cones but need some like i dunno +2 or 3 shocks....

There are +2" shocks avail and the last ones I had were from http://www.nissan4x4ownersclub.com/forum/member.php?u=237
He did supply them so send him a PM :thumbs
How much were the air lockers/

 

[dmartinmayes]

waiting to hear back from them think around 500 but might just weld front and rear diff...
as long as it isnt on the road dont see why the front welded up would hurt

It's a bugger to steer :lol

 

[dmartinmayes]

can you not get other shocks of other vehicals such as a landrover to use?

 

[makeitfit]

I'm sure you could, but I've no idea which one you need? You'll need a lot less strength in them now too as you've got no weight to speak of. I'll ask around tomorrow and see what turns up :thumb2

I don't think he has any more shocks for sale. Could you not make spacers for the shocks?

 

[dmartinmayes]

i could move the shock mounts but this will impede the upwards articulation..... just found out that pro comp es9000 fit so might get the +5 ones

Ah just re-read my post, I meant springs. :doh
