Series3 spring upgrade wanted

Post by ant-neil »

What's a good leaf spring upgrade for my series 3
Prefer simple and cheap but have access to welder etc
Prefer a lot more travel without chopping it all out to coil spring the lot

Before i started chopping i had a set of rocky mountain parabolic springs from mamakau (sp?) 4x4. Provided a lot more flex.

Parabolic springs aren't as expensive as some people think and work very well.
Years ago knew a guy who used leaf springs from a station wagon in the rear. Can't recall exactly what model. May have been Falcon.
