Ja ek kan dink elke tweede ou vra oor die goed maar ek kry nog nie iets opgespoor daaroor op die forum of miskien soek ek net onder verkeerde topics. In ons omgewing is Mikem nie nie n bekende nie dis maar meer die ander twee

Wikus. Van die die 3 wat jy noem, sal ek se OME. Camils het ek op my Ford, en ek is nie oortuig nie. OME op die Prado, uitstekend.
Maar, gesels met die manne by Mikem ook.

Vir my is dit eerste OME en dan Mikem of Ironman. Ek sou glad nie in Camil's belang stel nie. :wink:

You will never need to 'change' anything other than shackle bushes and shocks .... normal for any such suspensions. :wink:

Interesting... my front right leaf spring seems to have sagged a bit... 10mm(or so) difference between left and right front... or should I be looking for the fault elsewhere... maybe the modified torque rod needs to be re-fixed since I have moved the axle forward...

Not a difficult task at all .... you can see by eye if tyhe pedstals are pulling the spring packs into a negative bow at the mount by just looking at it along the line of the spring. As for thr TR, just release one side and see if it pulls / pushes away badly from the released mount by the relief of tension. this will also give you an idea of how much you will need to adjust the length. :wink:
