You have decent lift and radius arm spacers?
If that's the case, it's all your fault that it rubs, not the shock

Yeah I got those too and while they are still working, they're just too big in size I think. The front covers rub on the shock tower and the rears hit the spring and are destroyed. Already replaced...

The shocks sole responsibility is to control the spring, converting that kinetic energy to heat.
If you put your weight on on corner of the vehicle and bounce of it, basically the spring should...

How do you assess if the shockers are operating correctly ? I had a new OME system installed on my patrol from new. At 50,000klm, I pulled the shocks off and found the compression rates varied...

Another vote for OME. 170,000 km & still going strong.

I'm running Tough Dog adjustables (45mm) and I reckon they're darn good. Ran them on the Madigan and they got blisteringly hot but just kept on going. Great being able to adjust them for when I'm...

Yeah OME Sport would be my choice.

Old Man Emu gets my money. OME Sport is very good, mine has 240,000kms on the suspension and still going strong. when they finally die i will go tot he ARB OME BP51s which are next level but at this...

Yes, with higher boost/lower EGTs, but with stock ECU most likely get limp above 16.5 psi(CRD) and around 15 psi (DI), when hauling for greater length of time of say 10 seconds or so (with tow up...

Not sure mate, my motor has blown up once I pay a mechanic to do most work on my motor now, I can't afford a third motor.

So doesn’t the extra boost alone lower egt’s? And more boost would make it feel more mowerful.
4th December 2018, 01:27 PM
Yes I'm now boosting up to 20psi from original 15psi. Will be winding it back soon

Users have reported boost spikes (ZDs), both with and without 3" exhaust. Shame that I did not have a boost gauge before installing 3" exhaust (would have been good to have the baseline data).

I’ve heard that with a larger exhaust fitted you can get higher boost spikes? Boost gauge and Dawes valve will sort it I know but have you noticed any spikes

I just fitted one myself, I think it's great. Egts dropped by between 50°c and 100°c, motor is much more responsive and holds speed with much less effort.
Only problem I had, was the exhaust hit...
