Hi Gents,
Anyone have experience with the Ironman 4x4 suspension upgrade on an SFA?
Lobiz4x4 has a very good deal on at the moment and its very tempting!

As long as you don't plan on doing any real work with it you'll be fine!

Re: Ironman suspension upgrade
Vigo rear leafsprings will be too long for the front. A common mod is to put the SFA rear leafsprings upfront which pushes the diff 2inches forward(perfect for 33inch tyres or bigger) but you need cross over steering and a dropped spring hanger.
For the rear you use IFS rear leafsprings and 200mm long shackles. I want to put Vigo rear leafsprings in but I will need to move the spring hangers/mounts.
