How to get more flex?

[FUDGES]

How can I get more flex on my lux? I no there's not much I can do in front but at the back there's some idea's where I need your guys help? 8 )

I've heard about greaseble revolvin scissor shackles (Somthing like that) but I cant find anything on the net about these maybe its because I got the name wrong

So what can I do to get more flex at the back?

Regards

AJ, you can do a front SFA conversion for about R80k, and yes greaseble revolvin scissor shackles in the rear.

[FUDGES]

On that price Ill rather stick to my IFS

Where will I find these fancy greaseble revolvin scissor shackles

[Mud Dog]

I think you could do a SAS for a lot less than that if you did it yourself. Revolving or scissor shackles in the rear are fine if you're going to be using it offroad but as a daily runner I wouldn't go that route .... results in too much sway in the back for tar road driving ... feels unstable. Another option is to replace the rear leaf packs with something like OME or Mikem kits, but you must change out the standard shocks as well because they will limit the downward travel.

OR for that price u can buy a SFA and still do some flex. :)

Then I take it to tow with these shackle it will be dangerous

Quite correct

[FUDGES]

OK then just normal greaseble extended shackles?? And what must go with this lift at the back leaves and longer shocks??

I've got camils at the back can these be ajusted to make them longer?

[Mud Dog]

Don't know if you can adjust the camils, or if they will be long enough, but I think you could leave them off ... you wouldn't need them any more anyway.

[FUDGES]

Why do you say I wont need them

Ps sorry I dont know to much about these things

[Mud Dog]

If you fit OME or Mikem leaf packs you can opt for the heavy duty packs if you are regularly carrying a load. You will still have good articulation but a slightly stiffer ride. The camil's in my opinion just stiffen the ride and limit / hinder articulation. If you go that route (OME or Mikem), you can always re-fit the Camil's if you feel the need to. I assume you had them fitted for towing?

[FUDGES]

Nope I got them with the bakkie and I saw today my articulation is very very bad.

I need to do something about it.

Jeez dit lyk nice nou maak jy my kop deurmekaar :x :x

AJ die revolvin scissor shackles bou Regard kyk na die fhoto dit is die stel wat ek op Claas het wat hy gebou het. Maar vir 'n pad bakkie is dit gevarlik.

Jy kan speel met jou suspensie maar voor is jy baie 'limited' agter kan jy mal gaan. Die beste lift en flex so ver ek weet is die Prokom vir die nuwe Hilux maar duur. My advies as jy hard will speel kry 'n SFA of doen die SAS conversion. Neem ook in ag ek het met my IFS omtrend oorsals gery en meer pleke as wat my friende met hulle standaard SFA gery het maar dan moet jy jou bakkie baie goed ken. Ek het nou 'n SFA wat ek net vir kompetiesies en speel gebruik :D

Ek sal twee fhotos van my D4D en 'n SFA vanaand of more op sit wat op die selle plek flex dan sal jy sien die IFS kan flex maar nooit so veel soos die SFA nie maar naby

[Traveler]

Pype, dit sal interessant wees. Ek wil graag daai foto sien.

[Riceburner]

Lots of guys fit Mazda blades in the rear but you need to relocate the hangers.

[FUDGES]

Oeps dubbel post

[FUDGES]

Pype Ek wil BAIE graag daai shackels van Regard opsit maar soos jy se dit gaan gevaarlik wees so ek moet n ander plan maak daar.

Ek het die SAS oorweeg maar teen R80 000 kan ek eerder een koop. So ek sal maar voor n ARB locker insit, Dalk joune as jy jou SAS doen

Praat met hom ek het aan hom genoem dat hy sulke shackels moet maak wat kan sluet so as jy op die pad ry is dit gewone shackels maar as jy 4x4 ry unlock jy hulle net.

Ek gaan nog daai SAS doen sodra ek geld het maar 80k is baie, dit is meer in die koers van 30k dan kan jy my ARB koop

[FUDGES]

Dis nou goeie nuus ek ek sal bietjie met hom praat as SAS omtrent R30 000 gaan wees sal ek ook eerder dit doen ek wag maar vir joune as die proefkonyn

[Pype]

Soos belowe IFS en SFA fhotos. Nie sleg vir 'n IFS nie neem in ag die SFA is nie standaard nie maar die IFS ook nie

[FUDGES]

Dit lyk goed

Die SFA kan flex
