More weight in the front (with winch + cradle) and heavy duty springs are better able to fight the effects of the VERY stiff sway bay.[B]Declan[/B]: [SIZE=1]1997 GXL 4.5 Auto 80 series on [B][COLOR="#FF0000"]LPG[/COLOR][/B], ARB bullbar, 2" OME lift, 32" MTZ, GME UHF, rear ARB locker, Kaymar spare wheel carrier[/SIZE]

Ahh yes that sway bar is thicker than a GU patrol's one!Originally posted by williade View Post
Certainly the heavy duty springs would play into that. I'd say our weights are similiar though as I have a full size steel bullbar.
Perhaps I should disconnect the sway bar and test. I just realised I only have 1" lift in the front, how sad.glen_ep - engineered, 4" lift, 33" 255/85R16, lockers, 4.88 ratios www.pradopoint.com.au/showthread.php?17237 www.youtube.com/user/glenep www.fb.com/groups/ToyotaPrado90Comment

Disconnected the sway bar and took it for a test drive, boy does it roll on corners!
It allowed 40mm more droop than before (860 instead of 820).
Couldn't find a spot to properly test compression.glen_ep - engineered, 4" lift, 33" 255/85R16, lockers, 4.88 ratios www.pradopoint.com.au/showthread.php?17237 www.youtube.com/user/glenep www.fb.com/groups/ToyotaPrado90Comment
