    Re: Suspension Measurements 2

    OK Here we go, plus I have including before and after weight (We have free access to weighbridge in Alice)

    Standard, FR 752mm, FL 750mm, RR 784mm, LR 782mm.(I cheated and went to local Toyota dealer and measured one on the lot)

    standard with accessories. FR 735mm, FL 730mm, RR 765mm, LR 770mm

    Body Mount rubbers from bottom of the nut to the bottom of the thread on both front sides is 41mm, in case someone has wound the rubbers up tight as this will affect all the above measurments.

    Accessories. ARB steel winch bar, steel touring rack, roof top tent, dual battery system, cargo barrier, driving lights, UHF, brake controller and all the additional wiring involved.

    Standard Weight: 2165 Kgs (includes 180 litres diesel and 3 occupants)
    Accessorised Weight: 2440 Kgs (includes 180 litres diesel and 3 occupants)
    So the above accessorys have added 275kgs so far. :shock:

        Front - 760cm
        Rear - 820cm

        With both tanks full, unloaded.

        Front looks low cause the rear is so high :?

              No problems whatsoever (besides Pedders who changed over the top cap of the new struts). I went solo on this install as I booked in my brother thinking he was off but not realizing he had started his new job (inbetween leaving his old job and starting his new). I couldn't organize to do it on a weekend at this stage so just went for it.

              I put some pics in the Bilstein /Kings thread here:

                    Front Setup: Kings medium and Bilstein - ARB bar, Dual batt, Bash plate - 805mm

                    Rear Setup Kings medium and Bilstein - Custom Drawers and Fridge Slide + Waeco CF-80, approx 160 ltrs of fuel - 810mm

                    Suspension has done 10,000km so well and truely worn in... I'll be adding 20mm rock crawler spacers to the rear this weekend and looking to place rear shocks with an 80 series LC raised Bilstein (more travel). Bump stops will have to be lowered too and I don't run swaybars

                      Just a side note: When front suspension went in a spacer was installed above the strut which gave around 15mm extra - this was done to compensate for the ARB bar etc.

                        Would you not be able to adjust your billies to the top circlip to compensate for the weight of the ARB bar?

                        Also, did Kings previously do a medium grade spring? - as far as I can tell these days they do:
                        - Standard height
                        - Raised

                          Madkore,

                          Yes I could have changed the position of the circlip (currently on the lowest) however I didn't want to lose any travel (I have swaybars removed)... plus i've got a bit up my sleeve if I want to add a winch later on.

                          I don't think they did a "medium" sorry....I have the Raised one's.... I did consider the HD springs as i have no swaybars, it may help the body roll to some degree, but it's not too bad.

                            I am finally going to bite the bullet and up my suspension in the next few weeks.

                            So here are my measurements before:

                            Sovereign alloy bullbar,

                            Front 745mm
                            Rear 760 mm

                            I'll post my new measurements, and maybe a pic when I finally get out the plastic!!

                              Wouldn't you know it....Tough Dog sent up the wrong front struts (HiLux struts), so my baby is spending a night at Opposite Lock tonight until the correct struts arrive tomorrow. Damn :evil:
