I'm also thinking about a lift in the next few months, looking at billies and probably dobinsons or kings, Ive got a lot of weight up front and at least 100KG+ in the back, I know the B6 shocks are all the same but what springs have people with similar weight gone for, I see 40mm and 50mm ??120 GXL, D4D Auto 2007 - ARB Deluxe Bar, Warn Tabor 10K and Rec Kit, Safari Snorkel, GME UHF, BFG AT's, Lightforce Spots, Eclipse Sat Nav, Waeco CF40, Optima D27, Redarc Sbi12, Leigh W Diode, Voltmeters, Rhino Pioneer platform, ARB compressor, DIY Trek Table & drawers, HiLux Jets, Breathers, Water pump, rear custom fused electrical system, camp lights, LED's, ARB Roof top tent Annex and Awning, Maxtrax, Hi-Lift, Shovel.

I went ironman foam cells in my 120kzj... Brilliant and plush... Just leave the spacers that come with the kit out....unless you run steel bullbar and winch... It sits too high with them in.Black mica 06 D4D GXL. , kitted out to take me where we need to go to feel free......Comment

I went OME a couple of months ago. Very happy with the ride. So much better than the 10 year old factory suspension.
Their website has a good selector on it but no prices. You need to ring ARB for that.
Went for a bash in the dunes on the weekend and noticed a bit of a thump coming from the rear occasionally when climbing hills, I'm guessing it was hitting the bump stops and not anything actually wrong. Cross fingers.Cheers

No I'll post another photo when I get the mud off. The cam bolt is the part that gets adjusted during alignment. It is where the LCA meets the chassis.Originally posted by [email protected] View PostComment

Spacers means that you will need to space down the bumpstops as well. The 6mm ones AJ120 does will be fine as that is a minor spacer more to correct a bit of sag.Comment
