Re: 185 surf lift
Many different options, EFS, OME, Ironman, Toughdog, Dobinsons. I have EFS but would think about Dobinsons next time, Prob cheaper too.

Re: 185 surf lift
I had Dobinson springs (2" lift) and Rancho adjustable shocks in my 185 and it was great I would do it again.
Set the shocks at 8-9 for the back top handled like a car on the road at those settings and 1-3 off road.

Re: 185 surf lift
I have OME in mine, shocks are stiff. Feel alot of the bumps etc..throw some weight in the boot or a trailer and it's much better
modified surf, hardly drive it seem to keep modifying it....

Re: 185 surf lift
Can you get info on dobinsons coils free lengths and such? I'm trying to replace my efs and need to match coil sizes/free lengths etc as I'm running slightly longer shocks.
