Fg Ute Heavy Duty Leaves

Featured Replies

#1

So iv had my FG XR6T ute for awhile and with my steel tray, tools and gear I reckon iv dropped an extra 400kg on it that I'm hauling every day. Its dropped 50mm from stock and is only 40mm off the bump stops.

Because I want headroom to carry more weight I want some Heavier rated springs, then maybe quality airbags for the REALLY heavy stuff and to have fun bouncing up and down. (ill decide on that later) Airbags alone would be fine for daily use but wont cut it by them selves for anything extra. Don't quite want a 1tonn package but something beefier then the current sports pack.

While I would love my Ute to be as low as possible I need the extra static weight capacity. Suspension currently feels really doughy, headlights are pointing up and mudflaps scrape going out my driveway

What leaves do people here have or had experience with? Do I have to replace shocks & stuff as well? Iv got tomorrow off work so ill try calling some manufacturers.

Everyone in town know how to lower a ute, but not how to predictably raise one for increased GVM. lol

I just got mine reset but they put a extra leaf in as I carry stuff.. It's only been a week now so cannot say if it works or not. $70 on top of the resetting

How much higher is it sitting? & what exactly did he do by "resetting"?

If you don't have anyone nearby that can re-set your leaves with extra material as Pazz mentioned, King springs have a HD rear leaf that will bolt straight in and is the equivalent of factory 1 tonne leaves.

They aren't extremely heavy but when combined with the air bags you'll be apples.

Give me a call in the office if you have no luck elsewhere
