OME Suspension Upgrade

In my opinion with no load in the back the 896 will be rough, especially with the sports shocks.

Went and enquired about upgarding the suspension today. I tried to give them as much information as I could with what I already have mounted to the Prado and what it is used for. We discussed a few things and mentioned a couple of things I have read on here and this is what has been recommended.
Front springs- 2884 (Alloy bar, second battery)
Front strut- 90000
Rear springs- 2896 (No permenant load)
Rear shock- 60004

After re-reading a few posts on here again and weighing up opinions I think this is the way I will go. If the back does sag to much when fully loaded and camper attached I still have the option to install poly airs.

The 896 rear springs are for 150-400kg constant load, I run these with 200kg minimum in the rear at all times and they are fine, might be a bit harsh with no load. You could consider the 895 and air bags.
