That looks to have the making of a bargain lift kit ;-) What shocks are you using to go with the +4" springs? I have in my mind ive seen procomp on there? Im looking at what to do for these Zanfi springs TomDK is tempting me with :-)

Also do you have any issues with the rear shock rubbing on the panhard rod bracket (driver side i think)? Mines started with it since changing the arms to KAP corrected ones ;-(

I had AVO shocks front and rear, but bent the rears when the radius arm / axle holes ovaled and the axle rotated and killed the rear shocks :( , so I've got AVOs on the front and ProComps on the rear...

Are the avo ones adjustable for compression and rebound or just rebound?

Little bit of TLC before Sunday's upcoming 'laning trip - Oldham to Holmfirth...

My Zanfi panhard bracket had started rocking on it's mount again... there is a fair bit of leverage on it though.



Found the 8mm bolts supplied with it had worked their way loose and were wobbling around in the slightly oversize holes, so I drilled them both out to 10mm and fitted new bolts and nylocs and then reassembled everything with new nylocs on the other bolts too...





And then I cleaned "Buzz" my cordless chainsaw! Not sure if he'll be needed on the run on Sunday, but he rides along in the back just incase... ;)
