Rear end suspension
I know that it has to be changed that's why I am asking for advice.

before solid advice can be given. YOU need to be clear on what your plans for the car are.

fast rally style events?
slow rock crawling?
winch style?
weekend warrior?

How is the front of the car going to be set up? no point having one end super flexy and an unbalanced car. What is the max sized tires your planning on running, all that stuff will determine to some degree your final set up.

Then once you have an idea of how you want the car to perform, and how you want the suspension to behave. Then spend a few days reading various articles floating around the internet to work out which system would best suit your needs. THEN come and ask specifics. You will find if you keep asking vague questions you will not get much usefull help.

Sorry if that comes off sounding rude, not meaning it that way.

Thanks for comments that's why I put it up there so people can tell me what the go is.
I was looking at having a weekend warrior and run 33 inch tyres.
The front is leaf at the moment and I have only just got this car the other day so haven't had a change to really go over it.
I have email the guy that made it the way it is now so when he emails me back i'll know more.
I won't aask anymore silly questions until I know what I want then it might be easier for everyone.

if you just want a weekend warrior then this is what i would do.

get rid of that white thing...
use the red one
wide track diffs
2 inch leaves with ruf to suite
maybe 2 inch body lift
cut gaurds
chromo axles
33's
gears
lockers
done.

later on if you want a abit of saftey add a cage and some good seats with harness's

x2.

But if you are cutting your guards to fit 33's then just leave the body lift out all together

You'll never get it registered, but if you're happy to trailer it, just put some big offset wheels and mud tyres, crawler gears, diff locks and go wheelin. Who cares if people don't like the design, i've seen worse, and working well enough, it probably works, chances are that it's been wheeling before.

Get it running and drive it
