OME suspension
OME suspension
Hi all, just bought my first 4wd, 93 surf, so far ive got sum mud tyres snorkel and a 2.5inch exhaust from the back of the turbo to help my engine head stop cracking or so they say. I am looking to give it new suspension and hopefuly lift it up a couple of inches, i have been looking at an old man emu set up and was wondering if someone else has had any experience with this brand and what they are like. any thoughts would be appreciated. cheers
Some guys have complained of the OME stuff sagging - shop around, theres lots to choose from. OME, Cobra, King, Dobinsons, MaxiTrac to name a few.
Also, keep the servicings regular on the Surf to keep the motor as safe as you can... nothing can guarantee those 2.4TDs but regular servicings and that big exhaust will be as good as you can get to ensure it doesn't pop.

Heavy duty means different things in different products, but probably the heavy duty coils will need a lot of weight on them to flex properly... so avoid em unless you're a bricky or something
Go with long travel gas-charged shocks with a larger than factory bore, as they will hold up to offroading better. These might be called heavy duty - which in relation to most factory shocks on Japper 4WDs is a very good thing.
