Hey guys, ive got a 2" lovells lift and my cars as hard as a rock. How hard are the jimny bits lifts and tough dog etc? Would i be better off changing my shocks or springs to get a more softer ride?

Depends what the spring rate is etc. I think td shock is what cause the stiffness in there kits. Jimny bits kit with the es10000 shock is a soft ride.

yeah this lovells lift is lift being dragged across the tarmac, definitely not helping my death wobble problem i dont think.... does the es1000 still perform well offroad?

yeah i find it good enough for my use. wouldnt be fitted if i thought it wasnt doing the job.

Lurk around the rig section dude, as a noob youll pick up a lot of info from other blokes builds and their opinions too. If you have some easy q's still go for the noob section so you dont get flamed in here.
if your not noob my apologies. i seem to have been having a noob-full day.

Hmmm I just ordered the fully adjustable shocks from jimnybits....hoping they will adjust to a plush ride on the softest settings as my old bones don't much like being rattled on potholed garbage Australian roads!
Anyone had any experience with these and the jimnybits 3" springs?
