BAXRTUTE Gold Donating Members 2,639 Member For: 8y Posted 01/12/16 09:16 AM Share Posted 01/12/16 09:16 AM (edited) I was going to do a 5 link as ive seen Dans set up in person and seen how his ute handled on a cruise as I was behind feeling every bit of roll and bumps which made my ute slide very often when his just sat gripped and slingshot out of the bends.... but I use my as a ute and 5 link is maxed at 250kg. Fronts need new shocks badly and going to get new control arms with a 10mm spacer made up so I can put some wider tyres on the front and just going to put new struts sssl springs and sways front and rear Edited 01/12/16 09:18 AM by BAXRTUTE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything over 100kg in the back and decent sized speed bumps become like land mines...you creep over diagonally with teeth gritted and wait for the bang/scrape Unless you get some ultra heavy duty leaves? But then it'll be pretty bouncy unless you do have some weight in the tub. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BAXRTUTE Gold Donating Members 2,639 Member For: 8y Posted 01/12/16 10:45 PM Share Posted 01/12/16 10:45 PM Hahaha, The xr mite be in retirement in the new yr anyways looking at a bt50 as the new work ute. So depending on funds a 5link mite still be an option, though 5k just for the rear end is steep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
