    Hello all
    I know there is a lot of good info on here but all I can see is older posts looking at suspension toss up between Tough Dog and the Gold TJM
    I have TJM winch bar, winch, dual battery's fitted to front and ARB rear draws fitted in back.

    As I said looking at the tough dog and TJM setup I use the truck off road and want it to work well so I guess I'm after flex a little more than on road comfort tyre size is 265. 70. 17s

    Cheers.

        The sites search function is not so good.

        The trick is to use google.

        For example - Type pradopoint:suspension into google and it will get better results.

          Petrol or diesel? Have a look at Hutch's build if you have a petrol. Good advice from Beach I only google search these days unless I know where the thread is.

              Thanks
              Ive got a diesel 150 with Bar, Winch, Dual Battery, Spotties, Air Compressor, etc all over the front wheels. My factory shocks went to crap around 30,000km. I replaced them with Adjustable Tough Dog Front/Rear w/ Additional addon of Polyair airbags in the back incase i need to correct the ride height with heavy towing.

              Now up to 77,000 and I've had zero problems with them. Run them usually around 5 at the front, and 6/7 at the rear. Couldnt be happier.

                      Hey mate

                      I have a diesel gxl with steel bar, dual batts, roof rack, black widow drawers, 32 inch light bar and a compressor (rear mounted). I got sick of the wallowing and went with the tjm gold setup (heavy front,med rear) and am very happy. It's taken most of the wallowing out and has given me a bit more height. I haven't done any real serious trips yet but so far(~10,000 km) I'm very happy.

                            Both are very good products & you won't go wrong with either..
                            The Tough dog has the option of Adjustable shocks, so you can wind them down for day to day comfort & crank them up when fully loaded to help keep the body roll in check.

                            Regards, Jason.

                              Sorry for the delay in getting the picture up.



                              Keep in mind this is a slanted driveway so the car is on a lean. Best photo I could get at the time sorry.
