jeep suspension.

Post by klompy »

Hi i am looking at converting my short wheelbase jeep to coils. What is the best link set up for both front and rear. Why, and what is the difference between the different link styles.

Hi hyperlux 1 your name sounds familiar.What are the coil overs out of and what link set-up wuold i use.No one seems to want to offer any advice must be a tricky topic.As for the toyota twin cam I don't have a boat so don't need a anchor.Cheers klompy.

[quote] hello klompy, thanks for the welder , sorry about the twin cam boat anchor but i guess its not a 253 v8 like yours but with the hilux diffs it should go heaps better than the land cruiser ones . i reckon we can set up a five link for your jeep between the two of us .

Is the 2 litre same as your current motor, it might be good to swap over for your. Less green house smog in those closed in bush tracks.
