I think she just wants her tires to stop scrubbing? If you do then just add coil spaces, body blocks, stiffer springs, guard chop. Any of them is a logical choice, don't go to the stone age and use leaf-springs.

IF you want bigger tyres you will be cop bait. Don't listen to people talking shit about using hilux diffs, if you were going to modify your car to that extent you are going to need engineers certificates and blah blah blah.

TLDR; KEEP COILS.

Yeah i don't want bigger tyres, because it'll run her down, she'll slow down, i'm happy with that, however yes, my tyres rub pretty bad when she starts flexing, but thats just a big of body mod isn't it? cutting her a big higher?.. (little blue birdy told me).

alright well in saying that, what would you recommend Lockie?
p.s. are you Chris?

You could just chuck some coil spacers in and it'd be all good, a bloke on here sells them cheap.

Yeah you can also cut your guards, but I'd try to stay away from that option.

Chris I am.

do a quick search on bushwhackers... most people that have run them have found theyre too rigid and rip off the panel etc.

save your $$$... if the tyres are covered then its legal... spend the $$$ on fuel to drive it =)

Thats the least of my worries. The $25K crate motor means the project is over before it began. :wink:

In relation to the disadvantages to a coily, I found it starts with ground clearance, with the diffs dragging on the rut mounds. Solution is to fit bigger tyres, 30s would be a start for me, then the downfall is scrubbing and gearing. A transfer upgrade with gears would be next with lifted coils and a body lift. With all this done you could wheel it better than stock but you won't have a strong cv and axle set up. Without a stronger driveline this is where it ends with easy mods. You could fit a jimny diff up front and add a locker but a lot of fab work is needed.

I've toyed with shocks and springs, highest lift I had was 5 inches using jimny coils up front with a spacer and jimny coils in rear with pajero rear shocks. Had awesome down travel but no up travel in the rear, fronts had no travel at all. It rode ruff and if used anymore I would of cracked mounts and bent the front shocks. I've gone back to my 3inch lift and plan on a body lift next time.

Looks like you have 30s and a lift, has it had a body lift? I see the scrubbing your talking about, at least you drive it and get it dirty.
