Hi
Just wondering if anyone can recommend some lifted springs for my LWB sierra ute (84 vintage), is there a difference to the swb? Any what should I use for a RUF?

They run the same springs as a SWB, just with stiffer rears.

I had LWB spec King springs in my LJ81, they were stupendously stiff.

I put some springs in my lwb that came from a swb and they inverted the shackle even when just driving around a corner. When I fitted extended shackles they worked great and flexed very well

Old man emu. The efs were inverting/unloading the shackle in my lwb. The old man emus did too when I removed the load leaf, but put it back in and run the full leaf pack and has been running good for years.

The ride is pretty good too, not harsh at all (for a sierra)

Ah cool so OME it is, and is it the same leaf with the load leaf removed for RUF?
