RE: Mods Aussie Style
gidday garrettmoore, it is excellent. I have been very impressed with the ride. Thought i would get a lot more body roll but that hasn't happened. The extra clearance sure helps offroad as well. I did have the torsion bars wound up but have them down again as I don't like the "going over the handle bars" feel when braking..and for what I do, it doesn't need any moreheight anyway. With the lift and 35'sI need a step ladder as it is. The extra length shackles were to compensate for the weight of the drawers.
I know some guys have gone higher but without changing shocks again etc, you are really not gaining anything offroad as you are still limited by the shock length. Not much point of having 10" if you only get 1/2" of in and out...sorry I mean up and down!
Haven't broken anything although some bushes have worn and Rancho flew out replacements pronto. When Skippy broke his CV, our mechanic suggested we change the grease in the CV's. The original boots seemed very hard so he changed them but they have split so we are now fitting Elastomer after market ones which should take heaps of punishment as they are extremely tear resistant....similar material to thebottom of your shoes.

Drawer system almost complete. Created an electrical "cage" at the back of the fridge. Have mounted a 240 volt inverter which will run a drill etc and also fuse box and then sockets for the fridge, lights and water pump to plug into.
