Hi all,
I have 1991 GQ 4.2 diesel and am about to replace springs and shockies (shocks are getting soft) with OME from ARB. So car is used for daily use of course, but have just ordered a Tvan from Track Trailer and intend doing lots of remote travel over the next few years. ATM of Tvan will be 1500kg,(ball weight I estimate at 180kg) plus I have a 48kg dog in back, and fridge. Thinking I might get long range (145lt) tank to replace existing.
So talking to ARB store they reckon I should get their strongest springs. That maybe so. What do you folk think?
Secondly, would this put extra strain on the shock towers which I have heard can crack under heavy load/rough country?
Any thoughts on this will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
